Concrete and Masonry Safety

Concrete and masonry sites are full of hazards that stay hidden until it's too late: burns you don't feel, dust that scars lungs for years, and structures that hold firm right up until they don't. One missed warning sign can mean a life-altering injury for a worker and serious downtime and liability for the company. This Canadian course trains your crew to see the danger coming, take the right action, and go home safe.

About This Course

Concrete and masonry work carries hazards that rarely announce themselves until the damage is done. Wet concrete can cause deep chemical burns before a worker feels anything. Silica dust scars lungs silently over years, leading to incurable disease. Formwork and shoring can look solid right up until they collapse under a fresh pour. Workers who don't recognize these risks early are the ones who get hurt, and the costs land on everyone: lost time, serious injury, and liability for the employer. This course gives concrete and masonry workers the knowledge to spot these hazards before they cause harm, apply the right controls, and know when to stop and get a competent person involved.
In this course we'll cover:
  • The rules and responsibilities that keep concrete and masonry sites safe
  • The chemical and skin hazards of wet concrete, mortar, and lime
  • Silica dust, the lung disease it causes, and how to control it
  • Formwork, falsework, and shoring, and why they can fail
  • Rebar, concrete pumps, and other equipment hazards
  • Masonry work, manual handling, and protecting your back
  • Falls, scaffolds, and working at height
  • The personal protective equipment that keeps you safe

Is there a time limit for online courses?

Everyone learns at a different pace and everyone retains information differently. When you take a course online, you go at your own speed. If you get to a certain point and don’t fully understand the material, you can pause and go back for a review. On the other hand, if everything makes perfect sense, you can go straight through the entire course right to the test.

How does virtual proctoring/testing with webcam monitoring work?

When you start your test, you will be monitored via your webcam. If you disappear from the screen or appear to be consulting another device or other material, you will be disqualified from the course. The company responsible for virtual proctoring is Integrity Advocate. You can find out more about how their system works here.
