Occupational Health and Safety

The purpose of this training is to provide safety training information to employees who use respirators to protect themselves from respiratory hazards. Respirators will be used in situations where engineering and administrative controls cannot be feasibly implemented and in some cases where an employee chooses to use a respirator even when one is not required.

This course explores the different levels of risk we face on the job every day. It examines how to identify risk and delves into what factors go into our decision making process including barriers to making safer choices. We will always have risk of injury with our work, however the goal is to learn how to reduce the risk to acceptable risk levels before conducting the work.
