WHMIS Training for
Dairy Workers
The PEI Federation of Agriculture is offering WHMIS training to dairy farmers in Prince
Edward Island. This training is part of a milk house safety project which was funded
through Farm Credit Canada and the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association. This
training will educate farmers and their employees about the hazards associated with
handling chemicals along with instruction how to properly read, label and store chemicals on the farm.

This training will include viewing of our milk house safety video which was done in
partnership with the Dairy Farmers of PEI, Workers Compensation Board of PEI and the
PEI Agriculture Sector Council. The video outlines hazards found in the milk house and
offers suggestions on how we can minimize risk and work safely.
We encourage all dairy farmers and their employees to attend this training. All participants will receive WHMIS certification after completing this course.
