Classroom Managing Hazards - Federal
Call for availability

Training Overview

Incidents from hazards in the workplace can have costly consequences for employers and employees alike. With a proper hazard management program, potential and actual hazards can be recognized, assessed and controlled before they contribute to costly workplace incidents.

Employers and managers/supervisors also have a legal duty to take all reasonable precautions to protect employees. The only way to effectively carry out this duty is through a sound hazard management program. This half‐day course explains the principles of hazard management in an easy‐to‐understand format and introduces a practical hazard management tool. Available in both English and French.

WSPS virtual courses are delivered via Adobe Connect or Microsoft Teams Webinar. Platform specifics will be communicated at time of registration.
