Beginning in May, students from Cambrian College’s two-year Workplace Safety & Prevention diploma program will work roughly 250hrs to provide a variety of health and safety guidance and consulting to your organization. The program of study is uniquely designed to assist students in understanding current occupational health and safety legislation and then identify, assess, and manage risks in a variety of work environments. Students will be able to conduct risk assessments, ergonomic evaluations, and common tests to prevent hazards and harm to workers, property, the environment, and the public. Workplace wellness and human resources management is also a focus throughout the program of study. This course is open to the employer needs and would be flexible in nature.

Deliverables will vary depending on the scope of the project. The student should complete up to 280hr with your organization. Some example projects include, but are not limited to:

• Policy and procedure writing
• Program development
• Manuals
• Educational material
