Who Should Take It
Under the current Occupational Health and Safety Code of Alberta, employers are required to ensure that there is a system in place that identifies both real and/ or potential hazards that are present in our work environments. This system requires active participation by both the employers and employees within the organization.
This course is designed to support those who are in the position of:
• Management;
• Supervisors;
• Lead Hands
• Workers (office included)
• Health and Safety Committee Members.
