Working at Heights - On Site

Worksite Safety has been approved by the Ontario Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development’s Chief Prevention Officer as meeting the working at heights training program and provider standards.

This Working at Heights course offers the practical knowledge required to work safely at heights. Students will participate in hands-on equipment and setup exercises and address safe practices and procedures as specified in the Regulations under the Occupational Health and Safety Act of Ontario (OHSA).

This course meets the mandatory requirements of O. Reg. 213/91: Construction Projects. Under the OHSA, employers are legally responsible for ensuring that all workers on construction projects are CPO-certified before using fall protection. This training is a prerequisite for the equipment-specific requirements outlined in Section 26.2 of the Construction Regulation, ensuring your workplace remains fully compliant with the law.
