ÒThe release of the co-branded CSA Z432-16,
Safeguarding of Machinery course, in early 2017
represents the latest accomplishment in the
ongoing collaboration between WSPS and strategic
partner CSA Group. The two organizations
established an agreement in 2004 and since
then, they have developed six courses together
and educated approximately 8,500 participants
on high hazard topics.
CSA Group is a global leader in the development
of safety standards. Approximately 20 WSPS
technical experts share their knowledge and
expertise on CSA standards development
committees on an ongoing basis. The mission
of the WSPS and CSA Group collaboration is
to increase awareness of the health and safety
mandate, and reduce occupational injury and
illness by jointly working on training, events and
other projects.
In addition to course development, WSPS and
CSA Group continually look for other ways to work
together and make a difference. Over the years, they
have co-sponsored and organized seven conferences
on topics such as Electrical Safety, Machine Safety
and Warehouse Safety, and they regularily contribute
to each other's annual conferences.
