Every year, 145,000 Canadian workers are exposed to asbestos in their workplace and, tragically, over 2,000 are still being diagnosed with often fatal diseases, like mesothelioma and lung cancer. These startling figures have earned asbestos a reputation as the number one workplace killer, yet after banning the mining and export of asbestos in 2011, Canada continues to allow the importation of products containing asbestos.

Included in the training are the legal requirements and obligations as listed under Ontario Regulation 278/05: Designated Substance—Asbestos on Construction Projects and in Buildings and Repair Operations. Students will participate in a practical exercise to erect an enclosure and work with ventilation procedures.
