From the study guide
Maintaining a safe and healthy workplace is the foundational requirement for all Ironworker tasks, governed by provincial Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) regulations and the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). A safe environment minimizes the risk of falls, structural collapses, and material handling injuries, which are statistically high in the trade. Understanding the hierarchy of controls—elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, and PPE—is essential for hazard mitigation.
