Supervisor Awareness Training-Basic
Ontario’s Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) defines a supervisor as “a person who has charge of a workplace or authority over a worker”. The duties of a supervisor can include, but are not limited to planning, assigning, and overseeing work, identifying hazards, and addressing health and safety concerns. Employers are responsible for ensuring that when appointing an employee to a supervisory role, that individual has had or will receive appropriate training.
OHSA Regulations also state that supervisors must receive training in their responsibilities within one week of starting their role at the workplace.
Supervisor Awareness provides participants with basic training in the roles and responsibilities of a supervisor. For more in-depth training, a full day Supervisor Training Level 2 course is available.
