PROPANE TRAINING OPTIONS
BRITISH COLUMBIA – YUKON – TERRITORIES
——— Attention Managers, Supervisors & Health and Safety Coordinators ———
If you are responsible for health, safety and regulatory compliance in your workplace, you know you have an obligation to ensure all affected workers who handle PROPANE are properly trained and hold a valid ‘Certificate of Qualification’ recognized in accordance to Technical Safety BC Requirements Directive No. D-GA-2017-01 and Canadian Standards Association – CSA B149.2- 5.2.1
Training must also be delivered by qualified instructors through an authorized training provider, approved by a Technical Safety BC Directive # 2017-01. The training must be specific to the job skills required to operate or handle the transfer equipment and containers specific to that propane transfer type.
WorkSafe BC Guidelines state that employers and supervisors must ensure all workers are:
• Adequately trained and ‘certified’ where required
• Provide direct supervision and correct unsafe acts/conditions
• Ensure only authorized, adequately trained workers operate equipment
• Maintain health and safety standards
• Maintain recorded / written documentation
