To maintain certification status, a certified member of a joint health and safety
committee (JHSC) in Ontario must complete a Ministry of Labour (MOL)-approved
Refresher program within three years of completing Certification Part II and every
three years thereafter.
Participants will revisit important elements of Certification training.
This includes key aspects of a legally required workplace health and safety program
designed to implement the workplace health and safety policy, also required by
law. Specific duties and responsibilities for JHSC members, employers and other
workplace parties as set out in the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) are
covered as well.
New or amended health and safety laws, standards and guidelines will be reviewed, along
with current research, prevention resources, and recent legal decisions.
Eligibility: |
Certified members of Joint Health and Safety Committees who were trained in 2016 are due to refresher training. Certified members trained previous to 2016 were provided with "grandfathered status". Those were grandfathered and remain active certified members of JHSC may be able to attend if there is room, however, those who require refresher will be given first priority. |
