Workplace Safety and Transportation Classes

Workplace Safety & Insurance Board (WSIB)
Part 1 Certification Training - 3 days

Workplace safety is an important part of any successful business – safe work environments not only prevent injuries, they can contribute to the overall productivity of a company. CATI can offer your company cost-effective solutions to your safety and compliance concerns.

CATI is now certified by the Education Safety Association of Ontario (ESAO) to deliver the 3-day PART ONE WSIB Certification. WSIB Part One training is one of the most comprehensive health & safety programs available. Using the standard 3-day WSIB format, the CATI program addresses industry-specific safety concerns, including:

• Identifying potential health and safety hazards in the repair shop, office, parts departments, trailer yards as well as service areas and dock areas

• Auditing facilities in order to recognize areas of non-compliance where employees, drivers or office administrators may be unaware of hazards

• Conducting safety interviews with employees using trained listening and interpretation skills

• Establishing a Joint Health and Safety Committee or program

• Educating others on safe practices in the workplace

• Chairing Health and Safety Committee meetings

We’ll also inform students about how to complete the Part 2 training. Following the training program students receive a CATI certificate and will be granted Part One Certification upon successful completion of WSIB administered testing. Included is an overview of the Canada Labour Code Part II for Federally regulated companies.

Hours of Service (HOS) - 1/2 day

Always in touch with the latest industry news, CATI provides compliance training focused on the most recent regulatory mandates affecting the transportation industry. Recently, the Canadian trucking industry, along with governmental partners, created policies impacting the maximum on-duty and behind-the-wheel work time for drivers. The new Hours of Service rules are designed to improve inter-provincial commercial vehicle operations by ensuring the safety of truck and bus drivers, and, ultimately, our highways. It is important that both drivers and dispatchers are up-to-date on their knowledge and application of the new regulation. Our 1/2 day certificate program will ensure your staff is prepared to be in full compliance with HOS regulations.

We can offer this certificate program either at your facility or our campus.

Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) / Clear Language Regulations - 1/2 day

The Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) Regulations that came into effect in 1985 were repealed as of August 15, 2002, when the Clear Language Regulations came into effect. CATI delivers an in-depth review of the Clear Language Regulations program to help you ensure your staff meets all current compliance requirements. This is invaluable training for your staff and it can be delivered either at your facility or our campus.

WHMIS Training - 1/2 day

Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) is the national standard for communicating about hazardous materials in the workplace. In this program, we’ll educate your staff on the effective labeling of workplace hazards and how to identify hazardous materials such as compressed gas, flammable and combustible material, oxidizing material, poisonous and infectious material, corrosive material and dangerously reactive material.

Load Securement - 1 day

How a load is secured is critical to the safety of the vehicle and the driver. Failure to comply with regulations could not only result in huge fines for the company, but could also jeopardize the safety of our highways. In this 1-day course, we examine the key components of securing a load, including anchor points, tie-downs, blocking and friction. We’ll review industry standards and regulations governing load securement, as well as the Ontario Ministry of Transportation enforcement policies, so your employees will have a strong understanding of their roles and responsibilities.
