All workers in Ontario must complete a basic occupational health and safety awareness training program.

This 1-hour training session fulfills that requirement.
In this session you will learn about:

- The roles of health and safety representatives and joint health and safety committees under the OHSA.
- The roles of the Ministry of Labour Training and Skills Development and the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board in occupational health and safety.
- Common workplace hazards.
- The requirements set out in Regulation 860 (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS)) with respect to information and instruction on controlled products.
