SafetyVantage has released an innovative online WHMIS 2015 course, assisting Canadian employers and workplaces to meet their newly legislated compliance requirements.

Engaging participants through active, game-based learning techniques, the course ensures they understand the purpose of WHMIS 2015, and their roles and responsibilities under the legislation. It covers the new WHMIS hazard classes, pictograms and their meanings, supplier and workplace label information, safety data sheets (SDSs), and how to control and reduce the dangers of working with hazardous products.

This course takes the best of game-based learning and melds it with real world situations, by providing an in-depth exploration of the content and enabling learners to apply their knowledge through scenario-based interactivity.
