Workplace Incident Investigation

This program will teach you what you need to know to predict, prevent, and respond to workplace incidents, as recommended by Canadian Standards Association Z1005-17: Incident Investigation. The skills learned in this course can also be a useful tool in identifying and eliminating hazards that lead to less serious incidents that result in minor injuries, lost time, or damaged equipment.

This training is ideal for anyone in a supervisory or health and safety related role. It can also be beneficial for workers who want to develop the skills to identify and address potential hazards or near-misses before an incident occurs.

This training program will take about 1.5-2 hours to complete. It contains 6 chapters and a final exam. Your training is fully narrated and includes interactive activities at the end of every chapter. Once you have completed the final exam, you will be issued a wallet sized certificate of completion as well as a 8.5″ x 11″ diploma as proof of training.

Once your training is complete, you will have unlimited access to the training materials and resources if you require a refresher on the information or need to re-download any resources or forms.
