Words from the Chair - Specifier: March 2016

In February David Valk of Jenkins Marzban Logan spoke about “The Consequences of Failing to Uphold Worker Safety Regulations”. This is always an interesting topic that directly or indirectly affects many people within the industry on every project. It’s always interesting to hear the take on past cases that were the result of safety to ensure that we learn from past mistakes to ensure safer times ahead. We all have families we like to get home to see at the end of the day, so let’s speak out when we see unsafe acts on sites. In addition CSC National is hosted a Winter Workshop in Vancouver for Construction Contract Administration (CCA) March 7-11, 2016. This gave people the option of completing the course in 5 days. This course was held at the Pacific Gateway Hotel in Richmond. If you or someone you know is interested in any of these courses or the variety of online courses offered, please let us know.

We’re a little over 2 months away from Conference in Halifax. Hopefully everyone has a chance to see this event. Having gone for a number of years now, I can say it’s fun. The Vancouver Chapter will host the Hospitality Suite on Thursday May 26th. We’d really like to have a great presence to prepare for Conference in Kelowna in 2017. Hope to see you there!
