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.

Supervisor Training Level 2 provides participants with in-depth training in the roles and responsibilities of a supervisor. For a less comprehensive course, a half-day Supervisor Awareness course is available.
