Joint Health Safety Committee - REFRESHER
Pursuant to the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) and, dependent on the number of workers, Employers are legally required to ensure that either a Health and Safety REP or Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC) is established in all workplaces.
Further, it is the Employer's responsibility to ensure that workplace inspections and safety meetings are conducted on a regular basis as required by law. In addition, Employers must also provide all required certification training for JHSC members.
Canadian Security Training's Health and Safety division is an MLITSD-approved Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC) Training Provider and is licenced to provide JHSC Refresher certification training. Courses are conveniently scheduled to assist Employers with operational scheduling and budgeting and can be completed on a part-time basis including weekends.
