Workplace safety training
In Ontario, all unpaid post-secondary students are now considered "workers" under the Occupational Health and Safety Act. This means that students must complete specific health and safety-related training before beginning their placement at KHSC. Some of the training will be general health and safety (e.g. Workplace Violence, WHMIS, Worker Health & Safety Awareness) while other training will be KHSC specific and designed to orient you to the safety program at KHSC
Listed below are the KHSC specific learning modules that you must complete prior to your arrival for their placement. Should you have any questions regarding these placement training requirements, please contact Tanja Potter.
