According to the Association of Workers' Compensation Boards of Canada, manufacturing accounts for 42,000 workplace injuries annually. Machine-related injuries are the leading cause of lost-time claims, with improper lockout/tagout procedures responsible for 10% of serious factory accidents. The average manufacturing injury results in 17 days of lost work. Source: AWCBC National Work Injury Statistics Program, 2021
Canadian Occupational Health and Safety regulations mandate specific training for production workers. WHMIS 2015 certification is legally required for anyone handling hazardous materials. Lockout/tagout training is mandatory under Canada Labour Code Part II for equipment maintenance. Provincial safety authorities enforce strict standards with significant penalties for violations.
Canada's manufacturing sector employs over 1.7 million workers, with production positions representing the largest segment. The industry faces a skilled labour shortage, with 85,000 unfilled positions. Employers increasingly require comprehensive safety training due to insurance requirements and liability concerns.

While we cannot guarantee specific salary increases from safety training alone, Government of Canada Job Bank data shows that production workers earn between $32,000-$55,000 annually, with specialized positions typically at the higher end. Safety certifications may help you qualify for these various positions, each with its own requirements and compensation levels. Note: Salaries vary by region, experience, and specific employer

Each position benefits from different combinations of our safety courses
Manufacturing facilities face significant liability exposure from workplace injuries. Insurance companies increasingly require documented safety training for all production staff. Workers without proper certifications may face limited employment options as companies cannot afford the liability risk. Well-trained workers help facilities maintain lower WSIB premiums.
Daily exposure to industrial chemicals, lubricants, cleaning solvents, and raw materials requires comprehensive hazard communication knowledge. Learn to read Safety Data Sheets and understand chemical classifications.
Essential protection from machinery hazards including safety glasses, hearing protection, steel-toed boots, and cut-resistant gloves. Learn proper selection, use, and maintenance for various production tasks.
Critical procedure for equipment maintenance and changeovers that prevents machinery startup injuries. Covers energy isolation, verification procedures, and group lockout scenarios common in production.
Prevention of repetitive strain injuries from assembly line work, lifting, and sustained postures. Learn proper body mechanics, stretching techniques, and workstation adjustments for production environments.
Response to machinery fires, electrical hazards, and combustible material incidents. Covers fire prevention in production areas, proper extinguisher selection, and evacuation procedures.
Essential skills for responding to cuts, crushes, and equipment-related injuries before medical help arrives. Includes specific scenarios common in manufacturing environments.
Immediate response procedures for production chemical leaks, lubricant spills, and raw material accidents. Learn containment, reporting, and cleanup protocols specific to factory settings.
Managing workplace conflicts and maintaining professional standards in high-stress production environments. Includes de-escalation techniques and reporting procedures.
Exposure from adhesives, solvents, and plastic manufacturing processes poses long-term health risks. Learn exposure limits, health effects, and protective measures specific to production environments.
Present in foundry operations, ceramic production, and when handling powdered materials. Understand respiratory protection requirements and exposure control methods in manufacturing.
Working around powered equipment, control panels, and electrical maintenance areas. Learn to recognize electrical hazards, understand lockout procedures, and respond to electrical emergencies.
Documenting equipment malfunctions, product defects, and injury incidents. Learn root cause analysis techniques and reporting procedures to prevent future occurrences.
Managing stress from production quotas, shift work, and repetitive tasks. Recognize signs of burnout, develop coping strategies, and access support resources.
Factory floor temperature extremes from machinery heat and inadequate climate control. Learn to recognize symptoms, implement work-rest cycles, and prevent temperature-related illnesses.

Certificate validity varies by course and province. Most programs have a 3-year validity period, though this can vary. For example, WHMIS certification typically requires renewal every 3 years. Always verify current requirements with your employer and provincial regulations.
Our certifications comply with Canadian OHS Act & Regulations and are widely accepted across the industry. We've trained over 200,000 workers for 25,000+ Canadian companies. However, some employers may have additional specific requirements, so it's always good practice to confirm their training preferences.
The Essential Bundle covers the core safety requirements that most manufacturing companies expect. The Enhanced Bundle adds 6 specialized courses that address additional workplace hazards like chemical exposures and mental health, demonstrating your commitment to comprehensive safety preparation.
Each factory position has unique safety requirements. Production workers need broad safety knowledge for various manufacturing tasks. Machine operators focus more on equipment-specific hazards and lockout procedures. Assembly workers emphasize ergonomics, while quality inspectors need specialized knowledge for testing environments. Our bundles are tailored to match these specific role requirements.
Most workers complete the Essential Bundle in 1-2 days and the Enhanced Bundle in 2-3 days. You can work at your own pace, and your progress is saved automatically. Certificates are available immediately upon completion.
