Under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, at least one worker member and one management member of the joint health and safety committee (JHSC) are required to be certified. Certification is divided between generic training (Part 1) and sector-specific training (Part 2), which must be taken within twelve months of each other.

This includes understanding how to identify the relevant legislation, as well as standards, guidelines and best practices as they apply to the hazards in question.
Course topics include: dust and particulates; mine ventilation; fatigue, stress and the shiftworker; ground control; water management; electrical hazards; lockout; underground haulage; surface mobile equipment and falls from elevations.
