EH&S has released four new online courses to support the basic safe work practices and use of personal protective equipment when using or operating tools and equipment.
- Hand and Power Tools Course
- Machine Guarding Course
- Overhead and Gantry Cranes Course
- Rigging Safety Course
Anyone who provides, or is responsible for, the material handling equipment and/or tools is also accountable for the safety and training of their employees. While the new trainings provide enhanced safety knowledge, always train employees on the specific equipment, tool or activity.
