This past June, 14 new trainers completed OHC’s Train the Trainer Program for Food Processing workers in the Westman Region. These new trainers are from the Chinese, East Indian, Spanish-speaking, Russian/Ukranian and Filipino cultural communities and work in the food processing industry. They will be responsible to deliver three workshops in their first languages for their coworkers on Workplace Health & Safety Rights and Resources over the next year and a half.
This is a two year project undertaken in partnership with the United Food & Commercial Workers Training Centre in Brandon and supported by a grant from the Research and Workplace Innovation Program of the Workers Compensation Board of Manitoba.
