Construction Safety Association of Manitoba
Practical Solutions for a Safer Workplace
Young workers are the future of our workforce, however they’re at high risk of injury because they have less experience and training on the job. Training students in safety while they’re in high school prepares them for future employment.
Education helps to reduce risk and injuries, and your Construction Safety Association of Manitoba (CSAM) is here to help include youth in the efforts to reduce workplace incidents — our children deserve to go to work and come home safely every day. That’s why CSAM offers a variety of FREE resources to educate high school students on workplace safety and health.

WHMIS 2015 is an excellent training course in providing information about the controlled products used on the job.
High school teachers in Manitoba can register students for WHMIS 2015 and THE Safety Pass free of charge. Contact CSAM at training@constructionsafety.ca to receive the registration information.
Once a teacher has received a log-in ID from us, you can log in here and enroll students into THE Safety Pass and WHMIS 2015 (GHS).
