The information provided within this online workshop is meant to inform and educate employees in the identification of hazards within the workplace and then how to assess the risks the hazards pose to them. We will then discuss the possible controls that could be put in place to help lower the risk levels to the employees and then how to effectively communicate this information back to the employees. We must also mention that for this to work properly, management, supervisors & staff must continually monitor and evaluate the controls that have been put in place to ensure that they remain effective. This program is participant-based and will require an examination of the materials covered upon completion. Please refer to the Saskatchewan Employment Act, the Saskatchewan Occupational Health & Safety Regulations and your company’s health and safety manual/materials for any additional information on these subjects.

Estimated program length: 3 hours.

These regulations have been in place since 2007 and form the minimum training requirements to be deemed a competent operator of PME in Saskatchewan.
