Alberta Safety Council
Since our humble beginnings over 65 years ago, the ASC’s primary focus has been to help all Albertans develop an attitude of safety that will last them a lifetime.
Although established as an organization primarily dedicated to farm and rural safety, the ASC grew to encompass transportation and children’s safety by the 1960’s and WHS by the 1970’s.
As a non-government, not-for-profit organization dedicated to changing the face of safety for all Albertans, we are the only “cradle to grave” organization offering safety training and educational programs for Albertans ages 3 – 93. We work diligently to develop an attitude of safety with both children and adults through our quality education and prevention programs.
By taking a proactive approach to our training and program development, we help companies protect their most valuable assets – their employees. Although our program offerings have evolved and expanded over the years, the one thing that has not changed is our commitment to “Making Alberta a Safer Place to Live, Work and Play.”
