Safety Program Development - Principles of Health and Safety Management (PHSM)

All companies seeking COR certification must submit their health and safety program manual for review by CSN Safety Advisors. Prior to receiving COR, this document must pass our CSN Standards.

If your company has not yet produced a manual, or if you'd like to further improve it prior to submission, you may wish to take advantage of our Principles of Health and Safety Management (PHSM) online course.

PHSM is a valuable tool for introducing participants to the fundamentals of developing and maintaining a comprehensive health and safety program. It was originally designed as a component of the COR program.

While we strongly encourage companies to take part in COR, the PHSM course is also beneficial as a stand-alone program. By utilizing this online course, a company can produce a useful health and safety program manual which meets WorkSafeBC requirements.

Cost:

  • First individual from COR company FREE
  • Additional person or non-COR company, if a member of supporting organization $100.00
  • Additional person or non-COR company, if non-member $125.00

 

This fee will allow the user an ID which is valid for three months from receipt of payment.

 

Other Information:

  • Typically, the PHSM course takes approximately 4 hours to complete.
  • PHSM includes exercises and an exam which are not mandatory.
  • If the participant wishes to receive a certificate for PHSM, they must submit the exercises and the successfully completed exam to the CSN.
