Verification record

Use the Current WorkSafeBC Registry and Evidence

Record current contractor licensing evidence, legal names, scope, checked date, expiry and regulator questions without copying a static roster.

Decision file

Build a clearer project record

01

Use the live WorkSafeBC source

Search the current registry rather than relying on screenshots, ads, directories or an old website badge.

02

Match the legal identity

Record the name shown in the proposal, contract and registry. Resolve differences before work.

03

Check scope and date

Capture the lookup date, status and relevant scope. Recheck near award and if project timing changes.

04

Separate employer and worker evidence

Contractor licensing and individual training or certification have distinct requirements; ask what evidence applies to each role.

05

Keep verification artifacts

Save a dated record or approved export with the procurement file without publishing personal data or a scraped directory.

06

Ask the regulator when uncertain

Use WorkSafeBC channels for current interpretation. This page does not confirm any provider’s status.

07

Capture a dated registry record

Search the current WorkSafeBC source using the proposer’s exact legal name and preserve the checked date, displayed status and relevant identifier. Do not rely on a logo, screenshot supplied without context or an older exported contractor list.

  • Match legal and trade names
  • Recheck before work starts
  • Save the source URL
08

Match evidence to project roles

A contractor licence does not establish the competence or appointment of every assessor, consultant, laboratory, monitor or other participant. List the role promised by the proposal and the specific current evidence needed for that role and scope.

  • Avoid credential overreach
  • Verify subcontractors separately
  • Record scope limitations
09

Resolve discrepancies with the regulator

If names, status, expiry, categories or claimed roles do not align, pause comparison and document the question sent to the current authority contact. Keep the response with the procurement file instead of drawing an unsupported compliance conclusion.

  • Use project facts in questions
  • Record response date
  • Do not publish copied rosters

Create a procurement verification record

Record each proposer’s legal and trade names, registry search terms, current WorkSafeBC result, checked date, scope represented and supporting source. Add separate rows for assessment, laboratory, monitoring or other roles promised by the project, using evidence appropriate to those functions. Resolve name, status, expiry or role discrepancies with the current authority rather than inferring compliance. Recheck required evidence before work starts and after any subcontractor change. The record supports an informed procurement decision but should not republish a static roster or claim regulator endorsement. WorkSafeBC's public registry is current evidence, not an endorsement or referral. Match the proposal's exact legal name and licence number to the registry entry, read the listed status and expiry information, and save the date of the check. Do not treat a trade name, logo, business card or an undated screenshot as a substitute for a current result. Ask who will actually employ and supervise the people performing the abatement work, because the licensing and certificate questions attach to defined roles and activities. Keep survey, laboratory, abatement, monitoring and project-management evidence in separate rows rather than assuming one licence proves every promised function. If the contractor, subcontractor, scope or start date changes, repeat the relevant checks. Record unresolved discrepancies as conditions that must be answered by the contractor or current authority before mobilization, never as implied approval from this site.

  • Save current registry evidence
  • Match names to proposals
  • Verify subcontracted roles
  • Escalate unresolved discrepancies
  • Recheck before mobilization
