WHMIS training programs

WHMIS, or the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System, is Canada's legislative framework for ensuring safe handling of hazardous materials in the workplace. WHMIS training programs educate workers about the types of hazardous materials they may encounter, how to read labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS), and safe work practices to minimize risks. The aim is to promote awareness and understanding of workplace hazards to protect health and safety. These programs are essential for compliance with safety regulations and fostering a safe work environment.
