Training Overview

A WSPS expert will lead engaging instruction, discussion, and hands-on activities to help workers understand the key components of WHMIS 2015 - pictograms, labels and safety data sheets - and how to use these components to protect their health and safety. Public course delivery will focus on the chemicals most commonly found across industry. If you opt for on-site delivery, you can choose the chemical(s) you want the training to focus on.

This ½ day instructor-led training program is designed to help workers recognize the hazard classification and communication components of WHMIS 2015; understand the critical information provided through these components; and apply that information to protect their health and safety.
