Supervise crystalline silica

This course is designed for individuals responsible for supervising and managing tasks involving materials that generate respirable crystalline silica. It provides essential knowledge on workplace safety, risk management, and regulatory compliance to minimize silica exposure and protect workers’ health.

Participants will learn about hazard identification, control measures, and safe work practices to ensure compliance with workplace health and safety regulations. The training covers key topics such as exposure limits, ventilation systems, personal protective equipment (PPE), and effective dust suppression techniques.

This course is ideal for supervisors, site managers, and other personnel overseeing work processes where crystalline silica exposure is a concern.
