Participants are taught how to implement a WHMIS Program in compliance with existing legislation and leave with a comprehensive plan for providing information on the safe use of hazardous materials.
This course gives trainees the essential information needed to protect themselves around hazardous materials in a way that is educational, informative and interactive to ensure safety and efficiency in the workplace.
This course is designed to reduce accidents and injuries from working with or in close proximity to hazardous chemicals (controlled products).
Recognizing, evaluating and controlling hazards are the basic building blocks of any safety and health management system.
The Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS 2015) safety course reviews the previous WHMIS 1998 parameters and identifies the changes to the new WHMIS 2015 (GHS) requirements for the workplace.
