❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Can I take this course if I work in construction/building?
No. The construction industry requires a 40-hour safety representative course. This simplified course is only for low-risk businesses.
Who decides if a simplified course is sufficient?
The employer, safety representative, and possibly employee representatives must agree that the business has low risk and that shorter training is justifiable.
How long is the course certificate valid?
The course certificate has no fixed expiry date, but training should be updated upon new election or changed risk conditions.
Do all companies need to have a safety representative?
Companies with 5 or more employees must have a safety representative. Smaller companies can agree on another arrangement in writing.
