WHMIS/GHS 2015

COURSE OVERVIEW


If your job involves dealing with hazardous materials, then the WHMIS/GHS 2015 training is a requirement for you. This course aims to provide you with the necessary understanding of WHMIS and the Globally Harmonized System.

Since 2015, Canada has partly adopted the United Nations’ Globally Harmonized System (GHS), which brought about new protocols and norms related to the labelling and informational requirements for hazardous materials. GHS has led to the phasing out of the previous Canadian WHMIS standards, such as Material Safety Data Sheets, and replaced them with the new, globally recognized standards, like Safety Data Sheets (SDS).

The WHMIS/GHS 2015 course is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the WHMIS system, its recent changes, and the impact of the Globally Harmonized System on Canada’s industry and regulations.
