Course Summary

This course ensures your organization meets Ontario’s mandatory health and safety training requirements—without dragging your team through hours of generic content. In just ~5 minutes, it covers the core responsibilities of workers, supervisors, and employers, and teaches employees how to identify hazards, exercise their rights, and take action to stay safe on the job. It’s fast, compliant, and designed to build a culture of safety from day one.

Included Modules:

Introduction & Legal Foundation

Introduces Ontario’s Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA), the law that sets out the duties and rights protecting workers across provincial workplaces.

Roles & Responsibilities

Explains how the OHSA’s Internal Responsibility System assigns safety duties to employers, supervisors, and workers so everyone shares accountability on the job.

Workplace Hazards & Controls

Covers how to recognize common physical, chemical, and biological hazards and apply the hierarchy of controls to reduce risk under Ontario’s OHSA.

Right to Know

Explains a worker’s OHSA right to know about workplace hazards, including the information, instruction, and WHMIS training employers must provide.

Right to Participate

Describes a worker’s OHSA right to take part in health and safety through joint committees, worker representatives, and raising concerns about hazards.

Right to Refuse Unsafe Work

Outlines a worker’s OHSA right to refuse work they reasonably believe is unsafe, and the step-by-step process employers must follow when they do.

Worker Protections

Explains the OHSA protections that shield workers from reprisal for exercising their rights, raising safety concerns, or reporting unsafe conditions.

Shared Safety Culture

Shows how workers, supervisors, and employers build a strong safety culture together, reinforcing the shared responsibility at the heart of Ontario’s OHSA.
