Infection Control Risk Assessment – CSA Z317.13-17 – What’s New!

In January of 2017, the next generation of the CSA Z317.13 standard was released. The Infection control during construction, renovation and maintenance of health care facilities standard was first introduced in 2003 and has revolutionized how we maintain patient safety during times of construction, renovation or maintenance activity. The industry continues to evolve and the standard is working to stay current and up-to-date. This 4th edition considers this evolution to bring the standard up to date with advances in construction and facilities management industry practices.

This webinar will briefly explore the standards development cycle and key components of the standard. The bulk of the webinar will be focusing on where the standard has changed, evolved and improved. Real life construction challenges have helped the standard development committee improve the standard to remove ambiguity and improve usability.

At the completion of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
Identify the standards development process
Identify key areas of changes to the Z317.13-17 standard.
Know how to get access to the most current version of the standard.
