Why WHMIS Training is Important

Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) is Canada's national hazard communication standard. This system seeks to educate all those that are even remotely connected to hazardous materials in the workplace. This includes suppliers and importers as well as any workers that may come into contact with any WHMIS controlled chemicals or substances. WHMIS training and WHMIS safety training is critical for all companies that deal with hazardous materials in one form or the other.

There are well known organizations such as Online Learning Enterprises Inc whose vision is to be proactive in keeping Canadian employees safe and up to date with online workplace training. By conducting WHMIS safety training online, OLE serves to lower training cost and improve information retention. Videos are created to mimic real work situations and have high quality productions. The WHIMIS course outlines the right kind of safety equipment to be used, worker’s rights, WHMIS symbols and labels as well as the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
