This discipline implies that risks are treated methodically in order to reduce and control the probability of feared events, as well as their possible impact.

Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a method of anticipating and analyzing hazards and risks in the workplace. It is a rigorous process, a tool to be favoured by any worker who is about to perform a task, and it usually takes only a few minutes to complete. It raises team awareness of the importance of health and safety, identifies risks by breaking down tasks into steps, develops accident prevention tools, and encourages the adoption of an occupational health and safety culture. It also helps prevent serious accidents and save lives.

In some work environments, there may be contaminants present as gases, fumes, vapors, dusts or mists. In those cases, wear a respiratory protective equipment adapted to the contaminant to protect your respiratory tract. This training will allow you to learn more about the equipment available and how to adjust it.

The sounds emitted by certain equipment or the noise level of certain work environments could have a serious impact on workers' hearing if they are not adequately protected. When ambient noise cannot be reduced to a safe level with source mitigation measures, the use of hearing protectors becomes necessary. This training will allow you to learn more about the hearing protection equipment available and their proper use.

Sometimes, some work must be performed in a confined space, which is a totally or partially enclosed area, not designed to be occupied by people. Confined space work requires rigorous preparation and complex procedures. This training allows you to learn more about the safe practices to implement in these restricted environments to limit the risk of accidents.

This training will allow you to learn more about the safe and effective operation of a boom lift and aerial work platform.

RECOMMENDED PREREQUISITE TRAINING:
* FALL PROTECTION AND PREVENTION - INTRODUCTION (SLIPS, TRIPS AND FALLS)
* FALL PROTECTION AND PREVENTION - LADDERS AND STEPLADDERS

Any worker having to work at heights should know the risks associated with his tasks, and know what means of protection to use, to prevent incidents.

As part of this training, you will learn more about the main risks of falling and the means of control, the life-saving procedure and the risks associated with hanging, as well as the inspection, adjustment, and maintenance procedures of personal fall protection equipment.

Description:
Lifting devices are material handling equipment widely used in industrial sectors. Required for the transportation of heavy loads, they present multiple risks.

As part of this training, you will learn more about the creation of a lifting plan and the included items, the selection of lifting accessories and the correct attachment methods to use for the item to be lifted. In addition, you will discover the reasons for creating a critical lifting plan.

Note that in addition to this theoretical training, practical training is often necessary and even mandatory, as is the case in Quebec. Ask your employer or project manager for more information.
