About Us
In 1995, Guelph was lacking a business whose sole purpose was to provide safety to the people of Guelph and surrounding area so Kevin Gortmaker, his father Karl and sister Loretta embarked on a journey and created Probuy Safety Solutions.
Probuy became one of the first online e-commerce safety companies in the late 1990's. They were overwhelmed when frantic Americans called wanting to protect themselves and their families from biological warfare following the tragic events of 9/11.
Soon after the dust from 9/11 settled, calls again came pouring in due to the fear from SARS. Here they are again keeping people safe from the latest threat of Covid-19. They are passionate about keeping their customers safe on the job and at home. With their motto being “Safety is all we do” they now carry or have access to thousands of safety products.
During the course delegates will gain knowledge on the basic principles of chemical spill handling, use of chemical spill equipment and hazard communication.
In this Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) training, learn the standard classifications and symbols for controlled products, how to read product labels and MSDS forms, and your roles and responsibilities as an employee working with controlled products.
Located to our Concord Office, is our Occupational Health and Safety Training Center. We are proud to have achieved recognition from the Chief Prevention Officer, who has certified RMG as an approved training provider.
Our NEW Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS & GHS 2015) course is tailored to those who may become exposed to hazardous materials at work.
Workplace hazards can cause incidents and injury - controlling hazards prevents them. Recognizing, evaluating and controlling hazards are the basic building blocks of any safety and health management system.
