To All Faculty and Staff,
The Ontario Ministry of Labour now requires all workers, as well as all supervisors and managers, to complete new Worker Health and Safety Awareness Training by July 1, 2014.
Carleton University has created online training to meet this requirement. The training is available as of May 1, 2014 by logging into cuLearn at: https://carleton.ca/culearn/.
Please note the following:
1) All faculty and staff are required to complete the Worker Health and Safety Awareness Training module. This training will take an estimated 90 minutes to complete and can be done in stages, if necessary.
2) If you are a supervisor or manager (if you have someone reporting to you – students included – you fall into this category), you are required to do the additional Supervisor Health and Safety Awareness Training which takes an estimated 75 minutes to complete. This is in ADDITION to completing the Worker Awareness Training.
3) New Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) training is also available. Anyone working with, or in proximity to, hazardous materials needs to complete this training.
If the required training modules do not appear when you log into cuLearn, you have the option to self-enrol using the following steps:
