Power tool safety — also called hand and power tool safety or tool safety training — is a foundational certification required on Canadian construction sites, in warehouses, and in industrial workplaces. Every year in British Columbia, tool-related workplace injuries account for thousands of WorkSafeBC claims — cuts, lacerations, amputations, electric shock, hearing loss, eye injuries, and silica dust exposure. Under BC OHS Regulation Part 12 (Tools, Machinery and Equipment), employers must ensure workers are trained before operating any powered or non-powered tool that could cause injury.
