Ontario's Occupational Health and Safety Act (the Act) requires almost every provincially-regulated workplace with 20 or more employees or a designated substance on site to establish a JHSC.
 
Employers must also ensure at least two members of a JHSC, one representing workers and one representing the employer, become certified. To become certified, JHSC members must complete both Basic Certification Training (Part I) and Workplace Specific Hazard Training (Part II).
 
The WHSC is Ontario’s training centre specializing in occupational health and safety as designated under the Act. We provide both Basic Certification Training and Workplace-Specific Hazard Training.
