Labels keep us in the know all the time – they inform our diet decisions, they ensure we take the right medicines in the right amounts, and they keep us safe at heights and in tight spaces. The purpose of the GHS is to increase the quality and consistency of information provided to workers, employers and chemical users by adopting a standardized approach to hazard classification, labels and Safety Data Sheets.

Working with electricity can be dangerous. Workers performing service or maintenance on machinery and equipment may be injured by the unexpected startup of the machinery or equipment, or release of stored electrical energy in the equipment. In fact, failure to lock out machinery before working on it is a major cause of injury and death. These deaths and injuries can be prevented by establishing and following an effective lockout/tagout program. This training will tell you more about electrical hazards, safe practices when working with electricity, and the lockout/tagout program and how it can save your life. Ideal learners are any employee who works on or around electrical machinery.

Workplaces are designed to be relatively free from hazards. Hazards that cannot be eliminated are guarded to keep workers away. Workers wear their own form of guarding, or personal protective equipment (PPE), as a final layer of protection against workplace hazards. This course is ideal for all workers who use PPE.

Operating a pallet jack or pallet truck is different from operating a forklift or other industrial truck. Take this course to learn how you can help eliminate or reduce injuries and incidents associated with this equipment. This course will give you the basic information you need to inspect and safely operate pallet trucks in a variety of situations. Ideal learners are all employees who operate or supervise the operation of pallet trucks in industrial settings.
