Who is responsible for providing workers with WHMIS training?

WHMIS training is provided by the employer. This training is part of workplace safety duties, ensuring workers can identify hazardous products, read labels, and use the Safety Data Sheets correctly. The employer must deliver the training, keep records, and refresh it when new products are introduced or hazards change. Suppliers supply the labeling and SDS information to help with training, but they don’t train the workers. Government regulations set the requirement and enforce compliance, but the actual training is the employer’s responsibility.
