Under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, at least one worker member and one management member of a joint health and safety committee (JHSC) are required to take a provincially-approved Chief Prevention Office two-part training program (the first certification training component must be completed within 1-year before taking this course).
PREQUISITE: Joint Health & Safety Level 1
Part 2 certification course is designed to provide participants with the information and tools they need as JHSC members to recognize, assess and recommend controls for the hazards commonly found in their own workplaces and industry sectors. This includes understanding how to identify the relevant legislation, as well as standards, guidelines and best practices as they apply to the hazards in question.
