WHMIS Training

?Planning to work with hazardous chemicals in your workplace? WorkSafeBC regulations apply! In BC all employers are required by law to provide WHMIS instruction to all employees who are in contact with and in close proximity to any materials (hazardous chemicals) defined as controlled products.

WHMIS was updated in 2015 in BC to align with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) developed by the United Nations. The updated classifications, labels, and safety data sheets will improve communication, clarity, and worker safety. Although the system has changed, the responsibilities of workers, employers, and suppliers remain unchanged.

Our WHMIS 2015 GHS training course covers both the 1988 and the new 2015 GHS requirements.

This 2.5 hour course will cover information and educate workers on how to identify risks when using controlled / hazardous products, read labels on controlled products, apply and review MSDS / SDS sheets and learn how to reduce the likelihood of disease, injury or death in the workplace by better understanding and safely handling controlled substances.
