Please note that the MAAC BOD has today released the new Safety Code:

The Board of Directors has voted to release for publication the New MAAC Safety Code and the MAAC Policy and Procedures Documents that support it.

The 22 MSD documents that make up the New Safety Code are being posted on the MAAC Web Site under Committees, Safety, View Committee Documents, Main MAAC Documents.

The 12 MPPD supporting documents are being posted under Committees, Safety, View Committee Documents, Other Documents.

French Translations of these documents are in process and will be posted on the French Language site as they become available. At this time we have received six translated documents back from the translator.

The above action completes a process that began in April 2012 to revise, reorganize and update the existing Safety Code and Safety Guidelines.  The proposed New MAAC Safety Code and MAAC Policy and Procedures Documents were submitted to the Board of Directors by the Safety Committee in November 2012 and were approved by the Board at the AGM in Saskatoon on March 24, 2013.

Due to the size of these files it is not yet decided how or if these documents will be published in the Magazine. In the meantime those members not having access to the internet may request a printed copy from the MAAC Office.

These changes to the MAAC Safety Code are effective immediately.

To make the new MAAC Safety code more convenient to read I've merged all 22 MAAC Safety Documents (MSDs) together , as well as, the 11 MAAC Policy and Procedures Documents (MPPD) into one PDF file.  There is a twelfth MAAC Policy and Procedures Document; but, it is a power-point file and is listed separately.
