Ontario workplace legislation mandates that new employees must receive a number of training orientations.
Here’s a starter list of training requirements for the new employees. This information will help them keep safe on the job and inform them about their rights:
- Health & Safety Awareness Training (Worker and Supervisor)
- Workplace Harassment and Violence Prevention Training
- WHMIS Training
- Workplace-specific health and safety hazard training
- NEW: Beginning in June 2015, all workers must be given a copy of the Employment Standards Act Poster “What You Should Know”.
More information about Health & Safety and Employment Standards is available at the Ministry of Labour website.
