Tout employeur qui relève de la compétence fédérale et compte 300 employés ou plus est tenu de constituer un comité d’orientation. Ce comité étudie les enjeux qui, de par leur nature, ne peuvent être pris en charge par les comités locaux en matière de santé et de sécurité au travail. Un comité d’orientation peut également assurer l'uniformité entre les lieux de travail. 4, record 1, French, - comit%C3%A9%20d%27orientation
