CEO’s Message 3 stories, making a difference
what you will volunteer for.” She set the example by her own volunteering over the years, and with the clarity only a mother can voice, gave the expectation that her kids - now young adults - have a responsibility to their community. Simply paying taxes is not enough to make a community strong. This is not a story I made up to make a point. All the people are real although I will not give their names. These are true stories about people who have the absolutely right perspective on how they fit into the world and are doing more than the average person to make it a better place. They give of themselves in different ways and in different places but they all have the same belief that they have a responsibility to do something… and they are doing great things. The man in Minot lost a family member in a vehicle accident and as a tribute to his brother’s memory has bought, assembled and given away bikes to kids who need them for 12 years. He also gives away back packs filled with school supplies, and kids’ winter coats, and does so in the park near the place his brother passed away. He does not do media as ‘it’s not about him.’ And I am not talking about a dozen bikes and bags and coats but literally hundreds each year. The woman who went to Cuba had extra luggage as she took medicines we can buy across the counter here and likely have in abundance in your homes. In Cuba a plain old aspirin is not readily available and when it is, it’s expensive. She also takes bikes and used laptops and software. To her friends in Saskatchewan it’s junk - who wants an old laptop? But to her friends in Cuba it’s amazing. She packs them well and does it all legally so no one gets in trouble, but what she does makes a difference to those people who live on dollars a day in Cuba. The Chamber President lives in a town that has seen its share of people move in and out and over the years. In fact her own kids, after moving out to the bright lights, are now happily moving back to town with their families. The President was thrilled to have her kids and grand kids back, but she made it a point to ask each of them directly and with clear purpose, “I am very glad you are back living here, but now it’s time for you to decide

Some might say that we are blessed with many people who do things like this every day, and they are right. We in the business community are also blessed that we have companies like Jay’s Moving and Storage, who very substantially support groups like the MS Society and Potash Corp who were active in helping out the food banks and the evacuees this past summer. In both cases these companies do much more than just these examples. In fact, many more companies do great things (big and small) every day. The right to operate a business comes with some legal requirements, and I would argue some moral ones, too. A fellow once said how much he disliked the term ‘giving back’ as it suggested you took something that was not yours. Doing business is not taking what is not yours, it’s getting results from your work and investment. And when that’s done… well, it gives business people the option of sharing their money, skills, equipment or even staff to make the place they live and work even better. So to those who could be, but aren’t volunteering – where do you want to start? To those companies who could give, but don’t – when are you starting to help make the community stronger? And those who give much (and I know that’s the vast majority of you) let me say thanks for making Saskatchewan a great place to live, work and invest.
ABEX 2015 Finalists Announced Finalists are the “gold standard” in Saskatchewan business The curtain has been drawn back for a glimpse at the lineup of finalists for the 2015 ABEX Awards, to be held October 24th at TCU Place in Saskatoon, and the list of names is impressive. “We are very impressed by the number and calibre of nominations received this year,” said Steve McLellan, CEO of the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce. “Our 2015 ABEX theme is ‘The Glitter of Gold’ and I must say – this group of finalists really sets ‘the gold standard’ for Saskatchewan business.” In total, 89 nominations were submitted to the Sask Chamber, representing businesses of all sizes from across the province.

Crestline Coach celebrating 40 years in business Submitted by Crestline Coach
Crestline Coach was founded in 1975 by three Saskatchewan entrepreneurs eager to prove that they could build a superior ambulance. With the belief that Emergency Medical Services would come into its own and become an integral part of the health care system, Crestline’s founders wanted to revolutionize the industry by creating an organization that manufactured the best ambulances in the world through a focus on safety, innovation and durability. Over the years Crestline naturally evolved, refining and advancing its core products: ambulances, medical equipment, parts, and specialty vehicles, while expanding into the commercial bus markets. Critical to Crestline’s success are their employees whose sole focus is the customer. Crestline continues to grow, with more than 175 employees across Canada and the United States, with a client focus remaining stronger than ever. With employees having a clear understanding of Crestline’s broad capabilities, they are empowered and inspired to think outside the box which promotes a culture of creativity, passion and innovation.
healthcare, transit, shuttle, tour and charter needs. Over the past decade, Crestline has witnessed an exciting transition in the specialty vehicle market. New opportunities and dramatic changes have been spurred by the rising demand of the EMS community and their need to provide patients with immediate access to health care services. This initiative has refreshed and reenergized Crestline’s approach to product solutions. The demand for diversified and specialized vehicles has opened the gates for endless product solutions such as multi-patient emergency response vehicles, neonatal and bariatric units, patient simulator labs used for training, mobile health clinics and blood mobiles, cancer education and screening units. With Crestline’s unique product approach, there is no limit to product solutions and services. With safety, innovation and durability remaining at the forefront of their business, Crestline is determined to continue exceeding and inspiring today’s industry standards. This month, Crestline will again advance the industry by unveiling a brand new concept ambulance at the EMS World Expo in Las Vegas. This is where the industry can witness how Crestline is once again revolutionizing the future of ambulances!
Fundamental to future prosperity is Crestline’s ability to compete. In 2013, Crestline implemented the Lean Initiative. The initiative was designed to advance Crestline’s safety, quality, and delivery processes by problem solving to eliminate root causes and waste. Crestline has seen vast improvements in each area Crestline also marks their 10,000th ambulance and continues to invest in Lean Initiatives which are delivery this month, a milestone to underscore their strengthening their competitive advantage. 40th anniversary in business. As Crestline continues to improve the lives of their customers they are gaining major market shares in both the Canadian and International markets. Their reputation as a world class manufacturer has inspired business from all parts of the world, including a recent visit and contract with The Saudi National Guard- Health Affairs. To date, Crestline has exported product to more than 30 countries worldwide. Growth and expansion seems to be the theme for Crestline with their bus division rapidly increasing market share and even developing its own standing as Canada’s National Bus Dealer for small & midsized vehicles. Representing the top manufactures in the industry, Crestline offers premium choices for

September 10 is Youth Safety Education Day The Service & Hospitality Safety Association of Saskatchewan Inc. (SHSA), is very proud to announce the designation of September 10 as Youth Safety Education Day. For four years now, the SHSA has celebrated this important day by visiting high schools throughout Saskatchewan and encouraging other schools and youth groups to be mindful and informed about workplace safety. In 2012, five workers under the age of 24 were killed in Saskatchewan. In 2013 the number of youth worker fatalities were two, both being under the age of 18. The SHSA works with both future workers and youth leaders to raise awareness of workplace hazards and risks, how to develop a positive workplace safety culture and the importance of eliminating workplace injuries. The SHSA is working towards re-educating our youth to know their rights, and the importance of protecting themselves and their peers from all hazards they may face on the job. In early 2012, the SHSA began to lay the foundation towards a Youth Workplace Safety Initiative, with the belief that true change will come not just in curriculum, but in conversations and examples laid out by peers and educators in the hallways, school grounds and lunchrooms of our schools. It is the goal of the SHSA to reach youth before they begin their employment journey. This year packages have been sent out to partners which include schools, youth groups and businesses that employ a large number of youth. The package includes
7
fun activities promoting safety in the workplace as well as informative videos and materials highlighting the core principles of safety. The goal is to have these partners use the package to teach and inform our youth of the dangers posed to young workers and how they can effectively protect and empower themselves while out in the workforce. This package can be found on the SHSA website, www. servicehospitality.com or by contacting Dara Miazyk at 306-522-5499 or 1-866-999-SHSA. Everyone has an obligation to educate and protect the most valuable resource, the young worker. Unfortunately on average 8,000 young Saskatchewan workers are injured every year. Injuries of youth working in the hospitality industries in Regina and Saskatoon account for 817 of these injuries. Youth (aged 1524) are 3 times more likely to be injured on the job than any other worker. This is unacceptable; even a single injury is too many!

ADVOCACY in ACTION By Curtis Hemming, Director of Government Relations
As the October 19 Federal election nears, the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce is continuing to have conversations with a variety of candidates throughout our province. There has certainly been no shortage of things to discuss with them, and every day there seems to be a new and interesting topic to consider, based on the comments of the leaders on the campaign trail. While many of the SCC’s policy resolutions are provincially-oriented, we are advocating numerous recommendations from the Canadian Chamber of Commerce’s A Canada That Wins national election platform, as are many provincial and city Chambers across the country. This document, released in May 2015 by the CCC, focuses on developing practical solutions in four areas that are critically important to the Canadian
economy, including access to a great workforce, access to capital, access to technology and innovation, and access to markets. Since there is also a provincial election coming up soon, we are continuing to promote our own provincial election strategy document called OnTrack 2016, which was released in May at our annual Conference on Business. We are holding another series of policy roundtables in Regina, Saskatoon, Prince Albert, and Estevan in November to solicit feedback from our members on issues and to let them know what we are currently working on. We are also holding a new event called The Chair’s Invitational Dinner later in September which will have nearly all of the provincial government’s Deputy Ministers and Crown Corporation CEOs

While much of the research we do is based upon issues that have been previously identified in policy resolutions or advocacy initiatives, there are always opportunities for us to explore new issues that we have not focused on in the past.

OHS conducting inspections in manufacturing From September through November 2015, the Occupational Health and Safety Division (OHS) will be conducting inspections of manufacturers in Regina, Saskatoon and a number of rural locations. The inspections are part of an injury prevention project between WorkSafe Saskatchewan, the Safety Association of Saskatchewan Manufacturers (SASM), and the Saskatchewan Association of Chiropractors. Workers in manufacturing occupations are at high risk for back and shoulder injuries. According to the Saskatchewan
Workers’ Compensation Board 2014 Annual Report, labourers in processing, manufacturing and utilities had the fourth-highest total number of injuries; welders and machine operators had the fifth-highest total number of injuries in the province. During the inspections, the OHS field officers will be providing SASM information packages for employers. They will also be directing workers and employers to SASM training services.

INJURY PREVENTION TIPS: 1. Work shouldn’t hurt. If you are often in pain at the end of your shift, something is wrong with the tools you are using, the number of times you are repeating a motion, or the force, strength, posture or effort it takes your body to do a job. 2.
Not all workers are the same. Workers of different heights need different workstation heights.
3. Just because something is called ‘ergonomic’ does not make it safe to use. Often an ‘ergonomic’ tool can be a hazard. Use tools and equipment that make the job easier and fit the worker properly. 4. By removing forceful exertions, unnecessary repetitive movements, and improving worker posture, you can improve production. 5. A safe workplace can prevent absenteeism, turnover, and increase employee morale. Workers who don’t feel sore when going to work are much less likely to call in sick or look for a new job. 6. Workers often have the best solutions to ergonomic problems. Ask the people doing the job for suggestions. Nobody spends more time thinking about ways to make the job better than the person doing it. Often workers have great solutions to common workplace problems. Contributed by:
