Under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, workplaces must prepare and review a written Occupational Health and Safety policy at least once a year, and maintain a program to implement that policy. This certificate will help you fulfil this legal requirement.
Learn how to monitor and assess workplace hazards as they relate to the safety of the workplace environment and the people in it. This program also covers the management skills required to support and lead workplace safety programs.
This program is designed for anyone with responsibility for Health and Safety (e.g. Supervisors, Safety Coordinators, Joint Health and Safety Committees, etc.) that require broader legal and technical knowledge to function effectively in their occupation.
You can choose to take individual courses, if you do not wish to pursue an Occupational Health and Safety certificate.
