Workplace Safety & Prevention Services

Build skills. Build safety.

JHSC certification makes good business sense.

If you’re a company with 20 or more workers, the law requires you to have a Joint Health & Safety Committee (JHSC) with at least two members certified by completing special training.

When committee members are well-trained, they're better at identifying hazards and recommending improvements – and they’re better health & safety leaders.

As one of the leading CPO-Approved Certification Providers in Ontario, WSPS trains 1 In 4 of all Certification learners, with classes available province-wide, offering in-person, virtual and e-solutions.
