All BC #workers have the right to
1. know what hazards exist in the workplace.
2. report injury or illness from hazards
3. refuse unsafe work
4. be free from reprisal for refusing unsafe work
#SARSCoV2 is a BSL3 pathogen & we have a right to know if it is in the air

...Govts are trying to spread a hazard so widely that workers cannot say that there is more hazard at work than elsewhere.
But if you slipped & fell at work, your slipping at the ice rink does not remove your employer's responsibility to remove a work hazard #SARSCoV2

...and if it is so easy for them to trample on a worker's right to *know* that a hazard is present,then watch out! They will make other looming hazards *endemic* too:
#wildfire smoke? You inhaled that at the gym!!
#heatstroke? Why it is hot everywhere!
#ClimateEmergency

#heatstroke? Why it is hot everywhere!
#ClimateEmergency
...Making a work hazard *endemic* is a dangerous precedent, especially as #ClimateEmergency will raise the temperature & particulates at every workplace & employers, insurance, govts retreat from their responsibilities. Why is PH enabling this?
...We don't need to just sit back & let ourselves be choked with #wildfire smoke, baked by hot temperatures, & exposed to BSL3 pathogens at work. By upholding existing WorkSafe obligations, we can force the govt's hand to #DoSomething
