JobSafe - an award winning workplace safety training program
The JobSafe Program is designed to:
• Educate youth about workplace health and safety issues,
• Promote the development of a positive attitude toward safety, and
• Give our youth a solid foundation for future workplace training.
The JobSafe Program developed by professionals with first-hand knowledge in health and safety issues, principles and practice, is easily delivered in a regular classroom setting. The JobSafe resources support the delivery of the following three courses, each requiring approximately 25 hours of instruction:
• Workplace Safety Managment (HCS 3000)
• Workplace Safety Practicies (HCS 3010)
• Agriculture Safety (AGR 3000)
Students earn one high school credit for each course successfully completed. Students completing each course and earning a mark of 70 percent or higher will be eligible to receive a JSSS credential.
Students are introduced to essential health and safety principles and practices that enable them to develop the necessary skills and positive attitude for everyday safe and healthy work/life activities... at home, on the job and in their community.
