The Eastern Canada Research Consortium is funded by a 5-year Interdisciplinary Capacity Enhancement grant from CIHR. The Consortium is supporting inter-provincial networking, knowledge transfer (KT) and interdisciplinary training and research development related to workplace health and safety. The Consortium is a partnership among three organizations:

SafetyNet: a community research alliance for marine and costal workplace health and safety in Atlantic Canada. SafetyNet is funded by CIHR and is based at MUN, St. John's, NL.

The Institut de recherche Robert-Sauvé en santé et en sécurité du travail (IRSST): created in 1980 to contribute, through research, to the prevention of occupational injuries and diseases and the rehabilitation of affected workers. Its mandate is to ensure the development and dissemination of the scientific knowledge needed to achieve these goals. It is the largest independent workplace health and safety research institute in Canada

The Chaire d’étude en organisation du travail (CÉOT): the Research Chair in Work Organization in the Faculty of Business Administration at the Université de Sherbrooke. The CÉOT’s mission is to stimulate the research, creation, diffusion, and concrete use of work organization knowledge. The CÉOT aims to expand and strengthen its expertise in work organization through the development of a large-scale research program on the emerging forms of work organization in Quebec workplaces.
