Note: from http://www.labour.gov.on.ca/english/atwork/posting_training.php “Training in the WHMIS is not required every year. However, certain employers are required to conduct an annual review to determine whether worker re-training is required. Re-training may be required if new materials have been introduced into the workplace, or if workplace conditions have changed or new information on a hazardous material is available.”
