Level Two OH&S Steward Training
This course further develops the knowledge and skills that OH&S stewards and JOHS committee representatives need to be effective occupational health and safety advocates. Participants will leave this course feeling more empowered and confident in addressing OH&S hazards and in their role as JOHS committee representatives.

In this course, participants will:

• Gain a deeper understanding of the Occupational Health and Safety law and policy framework, as well as collective agreement provisions that support OH&S
• Review recent and relevant OH&S law and policy
• Review the composition, structure, duties, and functions of JOHS committees
