WHMIS Training in Surrey: Your Right to Know About Workplace Hazards

Do you work with or near hazardous products? In Canada, every worker has the right to know about the dangers of the materials they handle. This is the core principle of WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System). RupIELTS Institute provides comprehensive WHMIS Education in Surrey, ensuring workers and employers in Vancouver, Delta, and Abbotsford meet their legal training requirements and can work safely.

The Three Pillars of WHMIS

Our training program is built around the three key elements of WHMIS:

• Labels: Understanding supplier and workplace labels, what information they provide, and what to do if a label is missing or illegible.
• Safety Data Sheets (SDSs): Learning how to read and interpret the 16 sections of an SDS to find critical information on handling, storage, first aid, and emergency procedures.
• Worker Education: The training itself, which ties everything together and ensures you understand the hazards and how to protect yourself and your colleagues.

Who Needs WHMIS Training?

If your workplace uses any products with WHMIS hazard symbols—from cleaning supplies and solvents to industrial chemicals—then all exposed workers require training. This includes a vast range of industries in the Lower Mainland, including manufacturing, automotive, cleaning services, and healthcare.

RupIELTS Institute ensures your WHMIS certificate is up-to-date, as employers must review their program annually and provide retraining as needed.
