Numbering Systems<br />
• regulations are usually organized by using numbers and letters OR by using decimals<br />
• details are indented to the right (the larger the indent, the more detailed the piece of information)<br />
• for example, numbering and lettering method:<br />
• for example, decimal method:<br />

• when citing a regulation, all relevant numbers and letters must be included. For example,<br />
regulation 115(1)(b)(ii) OR regulation 112.03.12.02<br />
Sentences<br />
• regulations read like sentences containing lists– the section starts the sentence and the first<br />
letter of the section should be capitalized. To help you read the regulations, change each<br />
sentence <strong>into</strong> plain English.<br />
• the subsections, paragraphs and subparagraphs are like the items in a list (look for the<br />
commas at the end of each line)<br />
• there will usually be an “and” or an “or” before the last item in the list. If there is an “and”, it<br />
means all items in the list apply; if there is an “or”, it means only 1 item applies<br />
• there should be a period at the end of the regulation “sentence.” For example:<br />
117 (1)Every supervisor must<br />
(a) ensure the health and safety of all workers under the direct supervision of the<br />
supervisor,<br />
(b) be knowledgeable about this Part and those regulations applicable to the work being<br />
supervised, and<br />
(c) comply with this Part, the regulations and any applicable orders.<br />
• each stem applies to the entire list. In the example above, the stem is Every supervisor must<br />
and it applies to (a), (b), (c). The stem also assigns responsibility and accountability
