This important line of print products will play a pivotal role in strengthening Carswell’s overall market presence in the Occupational Health and Safety compliance sector.  HATSCAN’s collection of health and safety compliance content for Western Canada will complement our collection in Ontario.  And it will allow us to provide greater jurisdictional coverage and support for our customers in the Western Canadian market.
