Cosa sapere prima del test

In Alberta, a worker is working alone when they work by themselves and help is not readily available; employers must provide an effective way to communicate or regular visits and check-ins.
B.C. requires a written check-in procedure for lone workers, with checks at set intervals and at the end of the shift.
Alberta's Critical Infrastructure Defence Act makes it an offence to wilfully enter, damage or interfere with essential infrastructure, such as pipelines and oil and gas sites, without lawful right.
H2S smells like rotten eggs but can dull your sense of smell, and it collects in low-lying areas and confined spaces.
Stay at least 10 metres from a downed power line; it can be live even if it is not sparking.

Domande frequenti

Are working-alone rules the same in every province?

No. Each province sets its own occupational health and safety rules. This course uses Alberta and British Columbia as examples; check the rules where you work and follow your employer's procedure.

Can a security guard arrest someone under Alberta's Critical Infrastructure Defence Act?

The Act gives the power to arrest without a warrant to peace officers. A guard should observe, record details and call police. Other laws, like the Criminal Code and trespass laws, set out any arrest powers a guard has.

Do I need H2S training to work at an oil and gas site?

Many sites require specific H2S training before you start. This course only gives awareness. Follow your site's orientation and training rules.

What should I carry on a remote patrol?

Follow your post orders. Common items are a charged radio or satellite device, a flashlight, a first aid kit, warm layers, water, and bear spray where wildlife is a risk.

L’attestato è accreditato o riconosciuto ufficialmente?
