Safety and Health week is an opportunity to spread awareness about safety and well-being in the workplace, at home and in our community.   

Held in the first full week of May, this year Safety and Health Week is taking place May 4 to May 9 and includes a BBQ on Wednesday, May 6, in MUSC.  

Wednesday, May 6, 2026

All McMaster community members are welcome to attend the BBQ for a cost – $5.00 (cash only). Members of McMaster University’s 28 Joint Health and Safety Committees (JHSC) will enjoy a complimentary lunch as a thank you for their contributions toward health and safety.   

The Health and Safety Award of Excellence winner for 2026 will also be presented at the event. The award recognizes a community member who consistently demonstrates commitment to maintaining physically and psychologically safe working and learning environments.
