Course Curriculum
- Suitable for beginners and learners across Canada.
Every construction project presents unique hazards. This module explains how to identify risks, assess their severity, and implement effective control measures before work begins.
Understanding workplace legislation helps create safer job sites. You’ll explore the legal responsibilities of employers and workers, along with key health and safety principles commonly applied across Canadian construction workplaces.
Accurate reporting helps prevent future incidents and supports workplace investigations. Learn when and how accidents, injuries, and near misses should be documented and reported.
Construction sites involve many day-to-day hazards beyond major risks. This section covers housekeeping, site access, signage, welfare facilities, traffic management, and maintaining a safe working environment.
Falls remain one of the leading causes of serious workplace injuries. Discover safe working practices for ladders, scaffolding, elevated platforms, fall protection systems, and proper planning before working at height.
Excavations and confined spaces require careful planning and monitoring. You’ll examine common dangers, safe entry procedures, emergency planning, and methods used to reduce risks in these high-hazard environments.
Using construction equipment safely protects both workers and those nearby. This module introduces equipment inspections, safe operation, maintenance requirements, and responsibilities when using workplace machinery and tools.
Poor lifting techniques can lead to serious injuries. Learn safe manual handling methods, mechanical lifting equipment, ergonomic principles, and strategies that reduce strain and improve workplace safety.
Construction workers may encounter hazardous substances such as dust, chemicals, asbestos, mould, and biological contaminants. This section explains how exposure occurs and the controls used to minimise health risks.
Electricity is one of the most significant hazards on construction sites. You’ll explore electrical risks, lockout procedures, safe equipment use, and practical measures that help prevent electric shock and workplace accidents.
Complete the course by learning how fires start, how they spread, and the preventive measures used on construction sites. You’ll also explore emergency procedures, fire extinguishers, evacuation planning, and creating a safer work environment.
