Students will be able to discuss and recognize hazards associated with five key categories found in many workplaces: chemical, microbiological, physical, ergonomic and psychosocial. In addition to recognizing hazards, students will be able to recommend appropriate and feasible mitigation measures. Special emphasis will be placed on working safely around traffic, the Workers Compensation Board, and developing a complete Health and Safety program. Students will gain practical experience conducting a job hazard analysis and exploring applicable workplace legislation.
