recent decisions to abandon rail
lines, and to deny all current and fu-

Hazardous
materials
By Jack Riddell .
Mpp Huron
A tr.t:ging package, developed.to educate -workers about hazardous
,materials. in the workplace, has-been unvciled.by Ontario Labour
Minister Greg Sorbara. The package was prepared as a result of
amendments to the Occupational Health and Safety Act andtis de-
signed- to assist employers in meeting the requirements of legislation
which conics into effect on October 3.1, 198.8.
Under the legislation, Ontario. becomes a partner in the new na-
tional. Workplace Hazardous Materials Infornfation System
(WI-IMIS). The WHMIS requires the:uniform labelling of all hazard-
- ous
azard--ous workplace materials and the .creation of material safety -data
sheets.
Amendments to the Occupational health and Safety Act require all
employers to -provide training- for employees working with, or in
proximity to, hazardous materials so that they know -the danger and
are able to deal with emergencies: -
"The package Will serve as a basic educational tool for employers
and employees, and contains training modules dealing with the
\VlIMIS -regulations, information delivery, basic occupational
health, control, -and emergency," Mr. Sorbara said.
Coordinated by the Ministry of Labour- and the Occupational
!leant' and Safety Education Authority of the Workers' Compensa-
tion Board, the training -package has been developed as a joint effort
by employer safety associations and the Workers Health and Safety
Centre.- -
- The .development of 'the training materials and 'the training of
\\'HMIS instructors who will deliver programs across the province
have both been funded by the Ministry of Labour.,.
"Labour, management and the -government want to ensure that On-
tario workers and employers have access to a comprehensive training
program that can be adapted to any:workplace," Mr. Sorbara added."
Where -a workplace lacks facilities for formal training, employers and
cmployccs will be able to take advantage of courses offered at the
community level." T- he training package can be ordered by contacting the Occupational
Health and Safety Education Authority at (416) 927-4175, any safety
association; or the Workers' Occupational Health and Safety Centre
at the.Ontario Federation of Labour in Toronto. . -
- • Industrial training receives boost
Fifty four of Ontario's Community Industrial Training Commit-
tees have.becn awarded almost S2 million for operating costs, Skills
Development Minister Alvin Curling has announced. A further
S400,000.has been given to twenty-nine Committees to conduct la-
bour market surveys which will help determine local training_ needs.
-As autonomous.organizations funded by provincial and federal gov-
ernments and made up of volunteers from business, industry, labour,
government and education, the Community Industrial Training Com-
mittees identify arid respond to local training needs. •
"The industrial training committees are -valuable resources in iden-
tifying local training issues and needs. The contribution of commit-,
tee members is an important factor in establishing training priorities
across the province,`' Mr. Curling said.
Conducting local surveys on training needs, recommending train-
ing course content, and acting as resource centres for skilled workers
seeking upgrading are some of the activities of these Committees.
"The main goal of the Skills Development Ministry is to foster a
first rate training systent that is secondt� none and compares favour-
ably with those of our international competitors. This can only be
..accomplished through -successful partnerships with all parties such as
Community Industrial Training Committees," Mr. Curling added.
Grants to riding
Minister of Health Elinor Caplan has announced a one-time special
Employment Equity grant to Seaforth Community Hospital. A grant
of S3,500 plus reimbursement of consultant expenses up to SI,000
will assist the hospital in undertaking a review of hospital policies,
employment systems, recruitment and hiring practices and access to
staff training and development opportunities.
The town of Godcrich will receive a municipal road subsidy in thc
amount of S40,000 for work on Suncoast Drive West from the Min-
istry of -Transportation. This is in addition to the regular.granLs.pro-
vidcd by the Ministry.
