Getting your JHSC Certification and keeping it current is important, but the benefits of completing your training go far beyond meeting OHSA requirements. When your health and safety committee members are trained, they are able to recognize and control hazards, make recommendations for improvements, and help to prevent injuries and illnesses.
JHSC Certification training prepares your committee members to be better health and safety leaders, resulting in higher productivity and less potential downtime from illness and injury. Provincial employers in Ontario employing 20 or more regularly employed workers must have a Joint Health and Safety Committee in place.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
Explain their role as a certified member
Explain the roles of workplace parties
Identify health and safety legislation, and demonstrate how to access it
Explain basic rights, responsibilities, and training requirements
