Employers must ensure that certain workers complete a Working at Heights training program that has been approved by the Chief Prevention Officer (CPO) and delivered by a CPO approved training provider before they can work at heights. Our training not only meets the standards for the Ministry of Labour approval, it has also been approved by the Ministry of Environment.

This training is for workers in the municipal environment who use any of the following methods of fall protection: travel restraint systems, fall restricting systems, fall arrest systems, safety nets, work belts and/or safety belts and need to collect CEU credits.

To keep your certificate valid beyond three years, you will need to complete an approved WAH refresher program. After you complete the refresher you will get another 3 year certification.
