HAMILTON, ON (September 30, 2008) –The Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) launched a poster program to help workplaces promote health and safety.
CCOHS released the first two in a series of workplace posters: WHMIS Hazard Symbols and Cranes & Hoists Hand Signals. As part of an occupational health and safety program, the posters can illustrate and promote safe work practices and help remind people of critical hazard and safety symbols that can help improve the safety of everyone in the workplace.
The posters are double-sided, in English and French. They are available as free downloads from the CCOHS website, or for sale as glossy prints.
CCOHS is continually adding new posters to promote awareness of existing and emerging workplace health and safety issues. Two posters that are in development are “hand washing” and “air awareness” – both of which are planned for release late October.
More information about pricing and how to order the posters is available on the CCOHS website.
