What is WHMIS
The Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) provides Canadian workers with information about hazardous products used in the workplace.
Initially established in 1988 and updated in 2015, WHMIS aims to ensure employers and workers receive consistent and comprehensive health and safety information about the hazardous products they may be exposed to.
While this is a commercial page where we provide WHMIS online training courses, we've also created a dedicated page where you can learn more about WHMIS.
What you'll learn
WHMIS Online Training includes 5 modules and 5 tests.
WHMIS Introduction
This module provides valuable knowledge to familiarize you with WHMIS, including its workplace applications, components, and updated 2024 legislation.
WHMIS Pictograms
Pictograms are graphic images that immediately show the user of a hazardous product and what type of hazard is present.
Classification of Hazardous Products
WHMIS divides potential Hazards into two primary groups: Physical Hazards, and Health Hazards. Moving from the most general classification to more specific ones, these levels are hazard “group”, hazard “class”, hazard “category” and, in some cases, hazard “subcategory.”
WHMIS Labels
Hazardous products used in the workplace must be labelled. Labels alert workers to the major hazards and basic precautions or safety steps that should be taken.
Safety Data Sheets (SDSs)
Safety data sheets (SDSs) are summary documents that provide information about hazardous products and advice about safety precautions.
