Daily Commercial News reports that the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (an agency of the federal government) has launched a new online course to help organizations of any size develop their own OH&S program.
This new course adds to the Centre’s lineup of over 40 "e-Courses" that are offered over the Internet and require as little as an hour to complete. Students achieving 80% or better on the final online exam earn a certificate of completion. These e-Courses are developed by experts, reviewed by government and cover a variety of occupational health and safety topics. Some of the available courses that may be of interest to condo property managers and directors include:
- Accident Investigation
- Confined Space Management
- Emergency Response Planning
- Health & Safety for Office Managers
- Ladder Safety
- Pandemic Planning
- Preventing Falls from Slips and Trips
- WHMIS
In addition to the e-Courses (a few of which are free), the Centre’s website contains valuable resources on all aspects of occupational health and safety. Check it out.
