Welcome to Surrey! As you settle into your new life in British Columbia, finding a job is likely your top priority.

What is WHMIS and Why is it Mandatory?
WHMIS stands for Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System. In Canada, the law says that every worker has the "Right to Know" about dangerous chemicals they might touch at work. Employers cannot legally hire you for certain jobs unless you are trained.
