The Lawn Maintenance Safety Awareness course presents essential safety protocols for lawn care. The course is designed for workers and supervisors at the forefront of lawn care activities. This course is particularly relevant to those involved in municipal lawn care operations (e.g., mowing, mower servicing) and their supervisors, as well as workers in other sectors carrying out similar tasks (e.g., landscaping, golf course upkeep)
The Lawn Maintenance Safety Awareness course is a complimentary offering that presents essential principles and foundational information on lawn care safety. The course includes an overview of the relevant Alberta Occupational Health and Safety legislation, interactive infographics, expert advice, and real-life examples to underscore the importance of the subject matter.
AMHSA also offers a free Online Lawn Maintenance Safety Toolkit (available at Lawn Maintenance Safety Toolkit | AMHSA)
For Alberta participants who want to deepen their knowledge and gain practical training, they can register for the Lawn Maintenance Safety Program (LMSP), which comprises a full day of instructor-led training, split evenly between classroom instruction and practical training.
The Lawn Maintenance Safety Awareness course and the Lawn Maintenance Safety Program were created as part of a Creative Sentencing judgement following the tragic death of a young municipal lawn care worker.
