In Canada, suppliers, employers, and workers use the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) to communicate and identify the risks associated with products used in the workplace. WHMIS aligns with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) used by many countries around the world.
In December 2022, amendments to the Hazardous Products Regulations (HPR) meant changes to the previously used WHMIS 2015. Health Canada outlined a 3-year transition period to give those who use WHMIS time to make the necessary changes. As of December 2025, anyone who uses WHMIS must follow the amended HPR.
This WHMIS course aims to give you a basic understanding of the system, including general principles, worker safety, and significant updates.
This course covers the following five chapters:
Chapter 1: What is WHMIS?
Chapter 2: Hazard Identification and Product Classification
Chapter 3: Labels
Chapter 4: Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
Chapter 5: Workplace Education and Training
This course includes activities, self-assessment questions, and a final exam.
The Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) course covers crucial information pertaining to the legal transportation of dangerous goods on Canadian roads. After completing this course, participants should know the regulations governing the transportation of dangerous goods in Canada; the 9 classifications of dangerous goods; the placards, labels, and accompanying TDG symbols required on vehicles and containers; documentation requirements when transporting dangerous goods; and requirements surrounding appropriate emergency response in the event of an accidental product release or spill.

The SET Safety LMS is comprehensive and versatile. Their level of customer service and support has been impressive. They are very responsive to all our questions and requests, including requests to customize features (for example, they helped us create a custom online new hire form that helped streamline our onboarding). There are also many features that have helped us improve our processes... we now build courses in-house and host them in this system; we assign and track course completions through the training matrix; we can assign access to training reports for management to better support their teams; and the list goes on. Thanks, SET Safety!

Wonderful company & top notch software! SET Safety's software has enabled my company to transition our on-boarding and orientation processes to being entirely online. It was low-stress, cost effective, and most of all user friendly. With any new software there is a slight learning curve but this was a non-issue thanks to their fantastic technical support. My overall experience with SET Safety has been overwhelmingly positive.
