To maintain certification status, a certified member of a joint health and safety
committee (JHSC) in Ontario must complete a Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development (MLITSD)-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.
