WHY IS CONFINED SPACE TRAINING IMPORTANT?
Over a 15-year period, 18 deaths occurred in confined spaces in B.C.—more than one a year, according to WorkSafeBC statistics. Some estimates indicate more than 100 such deaths take place across Canada each year.
WHY ONLINE TRAINING?
Sending workers into the classroom for training means time off the job site, less production, and a higher cost to companies.
With online training, workers can prevent injuries on the job, learn at their own pace, review material more than once to refresh learning and a shorter training time is required (no lunch breaks, etc.)
Company benefits include the assurance that your workers are trained according to WCB regulations, preventing injuries, not having to pay for a training facility, no loss of production, can ensure completion of the course (completion certificates provided), and you're meeting your COR requirements.
