Understanding Bill 27: A Guide for Quebec Employers

Since the adoption of Bill 27 on occupational health and safety, organizational health has become a key pillar for companies in Québec. This article breaks down the requirements and how the Propulsion platform helps you stay compliant.

1. What is Bill 27?

Bill 27 represents a significant cultural shift in the Quebec workplace, moving from simple physical safety to a holistic approach of prevention and trust.

Key Deadlines to Remember

• October 2025: The final deadline for implementing the required prevention programs and health committees.
• Ongoing monitoring: Employers must now actively track psychosocial risks as part of their CNESST obligations.

2. Managing Psychosocial Risks

A central pillar of the new legislation is the management of psychosocial risks. This includes stress management, workload balance, and team cohesion.

3. Track: Monitor participation rates in your HR dashboard.
4. Report: Use automated reporting for management and the CNESST.
