All workers in Canada who are working with or around hazardous materials are required by law to have WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System) training. At Canada Safety Training, we provide WHMIS training through a comprehensive online Certification course that has been developed in accordance with the Government of Canada's 2015 Hazardous Products Act for the training of anyone who manufactures, works with or is ‘in proximity to’ hazardous materials in the workplace.
Through our WHMIS training e-course, workers will learn all aspects of the WHMIS (GHS) and how to apply this safety information when their daily tasks involve handling any sort of controlled product. This course replaces the previous 1988 WHMIS course and includes changes related to the international standard GHS (Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals)
