Trillium Health Partners is a leading hospital with an outstanding record of performance, fiscal responsibility and quality patient care. The hospital encompasses three main sites – Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga Hospital and Queensway Health Centre – offering the full range of acute care hospital services, as well as a variety of community-based, specialized programs. Our intention is to achieve the highest quality of care that is easily accessible for our community, at the lowest cost. We are committed to creating an exceptional experience for everyone who walks through our doors. As our diverse community continues to grow and age, and as more people are living with chronic diseases, we’re taking into account the inevitable changes on the horizon. We know that to continue to deliver exceptional patient care, we must think and act differently, and take a new and innovative approach to the delivery of health care. We envision a new kind of health care for a healthier community – an inter-connected system of care that is organized around the patient, both inside the hospital and beyond its walls. Through partnership, working in a coordinated way across the system, we can meet the needs of our patients and continue to provide outstanding, sustainable quality patient care. As partners in creating a new kind of health care, we are Better Together.

The International Accord is a legally binding agreement between over 190 garment brands and global trade unions with a mission to ensure safer workplaces in the textile and garment industry. The agreement promotes worker safety through independent inspections, remediation, and training programs and recognises the rights of workers to organise, refuse unsafe work and raise health and safety concerns. We recognise that safe workplaces cannot be ensured without worker participation in the journey to a safer garment and textile industry. Through the involvement of brands, trade unions, factories, and workers in the textile and garment supply chain, the International Accord pursues three main goals: 1. Promoting a culture of workplace safety by training Safety Committees and encouraging workers to identify, address and monitor safety hazards at factories. 2. Preventing fire, electrical, structural, and boiler safety accidents through an inspections and remediation program led by specialist, independent engineers. 3. Providing a trusted avenue for workers to raise safety concerns through an independent complaints mechanism.
