Overview
WHMIS has been in effect in Canada since 1988. It is the standard for hazards communication for hazardous products in the workplace. In February 2015 WHMIS became WHMIS 2015 following the adoption of the Globally Harmonized System (or GHS). The transition period ended on December 1, 2018. Persons handling hazardous materials must therefore undergo WHMIS 2015 training.
