About the Report

25 years of safety insights 

The Electrical Safety Authority’s (ESA’s) Ontario Electrical Safety Report (OESR) was created to provide a comprehensive perspective of electrical fatalities, injuries, and incidents in Ontario. Data presented in this report come from multiple sources, investigations, and root-cause analyses. Information is provided on potential electrical risks and high-risk sectors. This report is used by the ESA and others to better understand the dynamics of electrical safety and to encourage the development of initiatives to improve the status of electrical safety in the province.
