No IMPLEMENTATION Changes from the new and old systems


Successful WHMIS Implementation requires co-operation and input from the EMPLOYEE & EMPLOYER

The following  steps are involved

  1. Assign responsibility for program implementation.
  2. Set up an inventory to determine all hazardous products in the workplace.
  3. Ensure all labelling and SDS requirements are fulfilled.
  4. Establish workplace controls.
  5. Establish emergency procedures.
  6. Provide worker education (this course) and training (at your workplace)
  7. Review and upgrade your program when required.

REMEMBER There are three parts to the WHMIS program.

1. Classroom or Theory Part - EDUCATION (this online course is an example)

2. Training - On the work-site training - each worksite will have it's own "controlled products".  It is the responsibility of the company to ensure the worker receives the appropriate training regarding any "controlled product" being used.

3. IMPLEMENTATION - It is everyone's responsibility to implement ALL of the WHMIS rules and safety procedures.

A few of the Key Issues at your workplace are;

  • what "controlled" products might you be working with?
  • where is the safety equipment kept?
  • what are the company emergency procedures?
  • where is the SDS information kept in your workplace?
  • The primary VISUAL changes to the WHMIS 2015, Supplier Label are; No hatched border, red border on round Hazard Pictograms within the label(True or False)
    A. True
    B. False
