BC, Canada – 21-Jan-2022: Metro Safety Training has been serving the community of Burnaby, BC, for more than 10 years by offering emergency first aid training courses and workplace safety courses. Their certification courses include occupational first aid training, emergency first aid training with CPR, Standard first aid training with CPR, fall protection, and forklift training programs. The emergency first aid course costs 98$ as a day-long training program.

According to recent statistics, 2.3 million people die each year due to construction-related accidents and injuries. The fatality rate of construction workers has risen significantly by 41% from 2010 to 2019, and it keeps rising each year. Moreover, A Red Cross Polling indicated that 40% of Canadians had experienced situations where first aid was required, yet only 18% of them were certified to deliver first aid in those situations. Thus, mandatory workplace safety training has been legislated by the Canadian Governmental Occupational Health & Safety legislation to protect employees.

The emergency first aid program at Metro Safety Training educates candidates on how to respond to breathing and circulation emergency, respiratory distress, and arrests and trains them to perform CPR and unblock airways. This popular course serves as a survival tool and is open to all individuals, from doctors and medical professionals to high school students. Metro Safety Training offers these popular Red Cross courses in Surrey, Coquitlam, Richmond, Delta, and Vancouver.

While speaking about their first aid courses, a company spokesperson said, “We don’t just offer standard first aid courses and emergency first aid training, but also occupational first aid training courses. These courses start from level 1 and go up to level 3, and are more relevant to workplace-related medical emergencies. The basics begin from theory and progress to courses on dealing with limb fractures, eye injuries, respiratory failure, and cardiac arrests. Successful candidates are equipped with expert workplace safety and first aid skills and awarded with OFA certificates that are valid for 3 years.”

Some of the other courses at Metro Safety Training include fall protection training for construction and manufacturing industry employees to safeguard for working at higher altitudes above the ground. This course trains them to use and wear the correct protective gear and equipment, use the anchorage and harnesses, and handle and work around electrical equipment. They also offer confined space training courses to help employees working in mines, boilers, and places with low atmospheric pressure like sewage, pipefitting, and shipbuilding.
