Fall protection, also called working at heights or fall arrest training, is one of the most requested safety certificates on Canadian job sites. Falls are a leading cause of serious injuries and deaths in construction, roofing, telecom and industrial work. In BC, workers must be trained in the fall protection system before they use it, and WorkSafeBC expects that training to be documented.
Our course gives you WorkSafeBC-aligned and CSA Z259-aligned theory on any device. You get a digital certificate as soon as you pass, and a physical wallet card is mailed to you free.
Many BC construction and industrial employers also want a hands-on session: fitting a real harness, inspecting equipment, identifying anchors and practising a rescue. This online course covers the theory.
Under section 11.2 of the BC OHS Regulation, employers must provide fall protection when a worker could fall:
Full course, unlimited free exam retakes, digital certificate and wallet card, physical wallet card mailed free, and lifetime access to your records. No subscription, no hidden fees. Available in English and French — ask us about other languages.
Your Gama certificate shows a 3-year validity date. BC law doesn't set a fixed expiry, but your employer must keep your training current for the systems you use, and many employers and job sites ask for a refresher every 3 years.
Fall Protection is also in the Oil & Gas, Landscaper, Renovation/Demolition and Heavy Equipment bundles.
Volume pricing from 2 seats ($2 off per seat for 2–5, $3 for 6–20, $4 for 21–50, $5 for 51+), plus a dashboard to assign seats and track certificates. Email info@gamasafety.ca or call +1 (866) 661-9803.
