Help me to do the CONCLUSION for the below paragraph. Based on the given case study, below are the recommendations to Susan to address Joe's concern. First, we will explain to Susan that terminating Joe's employment is not the solution to the problem. She should analyze first the concerns raised by Joe and check whether it is valid or not. She should also not ignore the health and safety measures just to achieve production output. We will also remind her that Joe has the right to refuse dangerous work without penalty as stated in the Occupational Health and Safety legislation (Kelloway, Francis & Gatien, 2021) such as the use of the new chemical that he believes very toxic and potentially carcinogenic. Second, we will recommend that before she assigns Joe or any other employees to handle a new chemical, she should provide appropriate training. As an Operations Manager, it is her role to provide the necessary information, instructions, and supervision to her subordinates regarding the new chemical. Third, we will recommend that Susan should issue the Safety Data Sheet about the new chemical not just because it was requested by Joe, but also in compliance with Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS). The WHMIS 2015 has incorporated the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) which is the standard for the classification and labeling of chemicals being adopted by countries around the world (Kelloway et al., 2021). The issuance of the Safety Data Sheet will help Joe as well as the other employees to know the hazards of the product and the advice about safety precautions (Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety, 2021). Fourth, we will recommend that Susan seeks the assistance of the Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC) regarding the issue. Since the concern is about the new chemical, the JHSC can help in analyzing the use of the new chemical, its possible effect on employees, and workplace safety. From there, the committee can provide suggestions or recommendations to address the issue that will benefit both Joe, Susan, and the production plant. Fifth, if in case Susan and JHSC's knowledge about the new chemical is not enough, we will recommend that they request the assistance of the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety to provide further details about the said chemical as well as providing training for Joe, Susan, JHSC, and other concerned employees who will be assigned to handle the new chemical. Lastly, we will recommend that Susan should take appropriate action to regularly review work-related safety precautions in her area of responsibility. She should be performing periodic job safety reviews and ensure that personal protective equipment is always available for employees and is being used by employees while at work
