• Identifying and mitigating a wide range of hazards, including physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic, and environmental factors, and applying the hierarchy of controls for effective risk reduction.
• Recognizing and addressing hazards related to heat stress, noise, and indoor air quality in diverse workplace settings.
• Promoting psychological health and safety in the workplace by understanding and addressing issues such as harassment, stress, and violence prevention, guided by resources like CSA Z1003 and relevant provincial legislation.

Grounded in Canadian Standards

We want to reiterate that the CCSAT course is built upon a solid foundation of existing Canadian workplace safety standards. We have diligently used information from leading authorities and regulations, including:

• The Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) of Ontario (https://www.ontario.ca/page/workplace-health-and-safety)
• The standards and regulations of the Commission des normes de l’équité de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CNESST) in Québec (https://www.cnesst.gouv.qc.ca/en)
• The requirements and best practices outlined by WorkSafeBC in British Columbia (https://www.worksafebc.com/)
• The comprehensive guidance and recommendations provided by the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) (https://www.ccohs.ca/)
• Canada’s national system for hazard communication through WHMIS.org (https://whmis.org/) and the Hazardous Products Regulations (HPR) (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/environmental-workplace-health/occupational-health-safety/workplace-hazardous-materials-information-system.html).

Our aim is not to create new standards, but to provide you with a clear, accessible, and comprehensive understanding of the established guidelines that are crucial for ensuring safe workplaces across the country.
