Proper safety training is essential for workers exposed to fall hazards and hazardous gases like hydrogen sulfide (H₂S). Our Fall Protection & H₂S Safety Training programs help workers comply with Canadian occupational health and safety regulations and reduce the risks of serious workplace accidents. These courses follow guidelines from WorkSafeBC, Alberta OHS, Ontario’s Ministry of Labour, and the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS).

Fall Protection Training
