Guidelines for Industrial Camps Regulation

\"\"The B.C. Guidelines for Industrial Camps Regulation is now available here.

The Health Protection Branch (HPB) developed these best practice guidelines in response to requests from BC health authorities, local governments and various industries for a tool to assist industrial camp operators and regulators interpret the Industrial Camps Regulation (ICR).

As a background, the operation of an industrial camp is a regulated activity and Section 18 of the Public Health Act pertaining to duties of operators in reducing health hazards applies to camp operators. Issues related to health conditions in industrial camps arise from time to time due to lack of adherence to the ICR. These guidelines provide a tool to help mitigate such incidences by helping camp operators, employers and regulators understand the ICR; outlining duties of employers and operators; and providing best practices for maintaining minimum camp conditions to make workers’ accommodations safe, sanitary and fit for human habitation.
