Overview
What this RAVS document does
WHMIS is Canada's hazard communication system for hazardous products in the workplace. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor labels hazardous products, keeps safety data sheets, educates workers, and stores hazardous waste safely.
This document states your company's WHMIS program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: procedures for labels, identifiers, and worker education, safe storage of hazardous waste, training, labelling, workplace labels, and obtaining and updating safety data sheets. It is written to Yukon regulations. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a WHMIS answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For this element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- Hazardous products used only where label and education requirements are met
- Safe storage and handling of hazardous waste
- Workers informed of the hazard information for each product
- Supplier labels on hazardous products received
- Workplace labels where a product is decanted or a label is lost
- Safety data sheets obtained and kept up to date

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for contractors whose hiring clients require the WHMIS element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. It applies to any company in Yukon whose workers use, store, handle, or may be exposed to hazardous products. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags WHMIS, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the WHMIS review the first time
- Meet label and education requirements. The document states a hazardous product is not used, stored, or handled unless the label, identifier, safety data sheet, and worker education requirements are met. A reviewer expects that condition.
- Inform workers of the hazards. The document states a worker who works with or near a hazardous product is informed of all hazard information the employer received or is aware of. A reviewer expects that worker education.
- Keep safety data sheets current. The document states the employer obtains a supplier safety data sheet and replaces one that is three years old. A reviewer expects that currency.
