Out of Territory/Province COR™ Summary
If you already have COR™ certification from another Province or Territory, then download and submit the Certificate of Recognition Equivalency letter (COREL) application form, along with the required supporting documentation (see below.)
12.1 Out-of-territory COR™ Equivalency
For employers that have attained their provincial Health & Safety certification and are applying for equivalency to the Yukon COR™ program to bid in the territory, the requirements are:
• Submission of a copy of the summary of their most recent external audit.
• Submission of a copy of their provincial certificate or letter of accreditation.
• Submission of a letter of good standing from their construction safety association
regarding COR™ standing.
• Submission of a copy of their health & safety manual for review.
Once the above has been submitted and reviewed, the NSNY will issue a Certificate of Recognition Equivalency letter (COREL) valid for a one year period.
Once a worksite or YWCHSB account is established an external audit must be arranged. The audit must be performed within 60 days of establishing a worksite. If successful, a three year COR™ will be issued.
Note: Unsuccessful bidders will receive a new COREL, upon request, for bidding again in Yukon when the original COREL has expired. For those employers that achieve the Certificate of Recognition, they are required to maintain their COR™ according to NSNY requirements.
An out of territory contractor may elect to have an external audit conducted on a worksite outside of Yukon using a NSNY approved audit document and external auditor. If successful a three year COR™ will be granted to this company.
12.2 Temporary letter of Certification (TLC) – Out-of-Province
The requirements for out-of-province employers applying for a Temporary letter of Certification are:
• Submission of their Health & Safety program (Safety Manual) along with review fees for an administrative audit review by NSNY personnel to ensure it meets industry standard.
• Registered in, or completion of the required four COR™ courses by a full-time employee, or
• Application for and granted equivalency for one or more of the required courses.
12.3 Temporary Letter of Certification Extensions – Out-of-province
For the out-of-province employers applying for an extension to a TLC, only ONE extension will be granted on the condition that one FULL-time employee register and actively participate in the required COR™ courses.
