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.

An educational capsule on telescopic lift trucks.

The human body has a usual internal temperature of 37⁰C or 98⁰F. Since the body reacts when its internal temperature varies (thermal discomfort, heat stress), it is important to know the causes and prevent them.

The transportation of dangerous goods (TDG) requires special precautions depending on the type and characteristics of the materials transported. This training covers the main elements of the regulations in place to control their handling and transportation.

When an accident occurs with a vehicle transporting hazardous materials, the consequences can be serious for the people involved and the environment.
In this capsule, we will give you an overview of the regulations and classification of hazardous products, the usefulness of schedules, the transport containers, and the placards to affix to them, as well as the important documents to complete.

Dozens of accidents and illnesses linked to hazardous materials could be avoided every year.
In this educational capsule, you'll learn more about what WHMIS is, including hazardous product classification, labelling and product safety data sheets.

During this training, you will learn about the different types of asbestos and their health related risk. Also, you will be informed on where you should be cautious to the presence of asbestos in your work environment. This training is an introductory to asbestos.

Aerial work platforms provide a temporary work space and are an alternative to ladders or scaffolding. They can be used for inspections, maintenance or repairs.
This training will allow you to learn more about the safe and effective operation of a boom lift and aerial work platform.

In the industrial sector, carcinogenic substances are "time bombs". They are present and often unrecognized, and their negative effects on the body generally only appear decades later.
During this training course, you'll learn more about the types of exposure to contaminants and their effects on health, the usefulness of laboratory research, and how to protect the health and physical integrity of a person forced to work with carcinogenic products.

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.

Risks considered as critical are those that can cause serious permanent damage or even death to workers.
Each type of work or operation causes different critical risks. Therefore, it is important not only to know the critical risks, but to target and prioritize each specific intervention for each environment.

Whether by browsing the internet or through connected devices, malicious people could try to hack your accounts or corrupt your data. Measures and best practices must be put in place to protect your data and your connected devices. This training will allow you to learn more about cybersecurity.

Any worker who is exposed to sources of electrical power is at risk. Aren’t electric shocks harmless? Perhaps, but the force and heat produced by an electric arc can damage and destroy human tissue. Through this online training, workers will be informed of potential risks which may arise in the course of their duties and of prevention measures they should implement.

Same level falls, holes, mezzanines, scaffolding, platforms, ladders, stepladders, roofs, towers or skyscrapers, etc.: opportunities to fall are everywhere. Year after year, falls are among the leading causes of workplace deaths. This training addresses the main situations that expose workers to the risk of falls and includes the basic principles and techniques of fall protection to recognize and prevent potential hazards associated with working at heights.

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.

Fire extinguishers are first response tool allowing to act on incipient fire. The source of a fire may vary, and using the wrong extinguisher type can not only be ineffective, but can, in some cases, aggravate a situation. This training covers the fire extinguisher types, and explains how to use them and maintain their good condition.

Lift trucks are now used everywhere, in all sectors, to handle heavy loads. The worker must therefore know the good practices to apply when using them.

As part of this training, you will learn more about the several types of lift trucks, accident causes, stability principle, operator safety, and general safety rules of the equipment.
