Questions on Charitable Status report: did CS approve their finances, Dan will provide. They were approved prior to getting status. Jasmine asked about why only ESA, and suggested it could be a pilot and extended to other faculties or groups. Question about Finances, bookkeeper putting in lots of hours? Jeff will meet with her to make sure she has everything she needs and engage with her on including salaries and other questions. Probably due to her being new. Jonathan and Chris to attend in person or on phone. Comment by Nancy about timing of reports, all in but need more time for board members to be read.

Business Item 1: OHS Policy (10 min)

Nancy distributed a boilerplate document in draft from provincial requirements. Keep safe, everyone accountable. May have to change performance requirements re: responsibility of ED Biggest challenge with Dan is too much information and all ten steps. Asking for approval of this today with some changes. Second piece is hazard assessment nights, Monday 02-27 BWN, Tuesday 02-28 BWS, more people the better. Adrian sent Chris a blurb but haven’t seen an email back. Nancy to follow up with Chris on communication for this; and snacks. After that, look at hazard assessment, going baby steps Question: how many people are helpful? Will work in pairs, more the better e.g. 20. Discussion notes: Review policy document for OHS program Tweaks to signing authority including board and ED; wording re: ED
