The Canadian Construction Safety Council is announcing a mandatory transition to Type 2 hard hats with integrated chin straps for all subcontractors working on CCSC-member sites across Canada, effective July 1, 2026.
This change reflects a growing industry commitment to enhanced head protection against lateral impacts and falls, by ensuring helmets stay securely in place when it matters most.
How this affects subcontractors:
- CSA- or ANSI-certified Type 2 hard hats with integrated chin straps will be required.
- Applies to all CCSC member projects nationwide.
This transition represents a collective step forward by all CCSC members to protect workers and reduce serious head injuries across Canadian construction sites.
