Pat Evangelisto spent 25 years in manufacturing – initially in Human Resources where he obtained his CHRP (Certified Human Resources Professional). During this period of time he held senior HR positions where he was responsible for everything from labour negotiations and labour relations to recruitment and benefits administration. From the beginning, health and safety was a priority. Not only did he understand the importance of providing a safe environment for people to work in, but also saw the benefits of involving people in making workplaces safe.
Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) Training program is designed to protect workers that are working at Hazardous Materials Operations or where Cleanups are conducted to ensure their safety and health.
WHMIS stands for Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System. It is a Canada-wide system designed to protect the health & safety of working Canadians by providing information about hazardous materials encountered at work.
Our Workplace Safety Training programs have been developed to ensure the content is aligned with all current regulatory standards for the Occupational Health & Safety Act (OSHA), the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).
This course discusses the entire hazard assessment process from hazard identification to Safe Work Procedures. It will assist you in developing Risk Assessments through a Critical Job Inventory, Job Hazard Analysis and Safe Work Procedures.
The WHMIS 2015 GHS course offered by Expert Safety Solutions covers the updated pictograms and is designed to ensure employers and workers have up-to-date information on hazardous material used in the workplace.
