innovation funding stream

our innovation funding stream supports research ideas that may lead to innovative solutions and knowledge creation for problems related to occupational health and safety and work disability. the innovation funding stream currently consists of three funding opportunities.

• applied innovation: supporting small-scale, shop-floor research projects that lead to innovative and practical solutions that can be implemented in workplaces
• proof of principle and prototyping: supporting early-stage prototypes, tools, and technology that can be used in workplaces to solve occupational health and safety problems
• exploratory research: supporting high-risk/high-reward projects that explore novel ideas and solutions with transformational and lasting effects across workplaces in canada
