OHSC Inc. Received CPO Approval for New JHSC Certification Training Solutions

New Ministry of Labour training standards for Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC) Certification training took effect on March 1, 2016, and Ontario companies with 20 or more employees are impacted.  Occupational Health and Safety Consultants Inc(OHSC Inc)has been approved by the CPO to provide Part One and Part Two JHSC Certification Training under the new standards.

Certification is a two-step process.

Part One is the first step in training JHSC members, providing them with a well-rounded understanding of health and safety fundamentals they can apply to their own workplace.

This includes health and safety and the law, and how to recognize and control hazards. Members also learn about their roles and responsibilities, for example, in identifying hazards and making recommendations and in inspecting the workplace and investigating accidents.

Part One training concludes with a MOL developed test.

You can be certain that with all our Part One options, you receive thorough training and a solid grounding in health and safety that prepares you for the Part One test, and sets the stage for Part Two.

Part Two can begin as soon as you finish Part One. You can even register for both courses at the same time – you don’t have to wait for your Part One test results from the MOL. In fact, we’ve found when taking both parts close together, the information stays fresh and learning is even more effective.

Choose your training option.

Part One is available in several options, making training easier and more accessible.

∙         Public Classroom – with locations across Ontario, you receive interactive, instructor-led training that encourages learning and networking.

∙         On-Site Classroom – our instructors come to your workplace – any shift, 24-7– making this an ideal option for group training.

The minimum requirement for JHSC Certification Part One training is three days (or 19.5 hours). All participants must meet the minimum training requirement to successfully complete the program. If portions of the program are missed, the participant will not be able to write the final evaluation and will be required to retake the training.
