COR™

Certificate of Recognition (COR™) Program

 

NBCSA’s Certificate of Recognition (COR™ ) Program is a nationally recognized health and safety certification program for employers in the construction and related industries.

Accreditation is achieved through completion of 6 (six) COR™ training courses, followed by an internal and external evaluation of the company-wide health and safety program. The six COR™ courses are as follows, Principals of Loss Control (eLearning course available), Principals of Loss Control Audit, Hazard Identification and Control, Leadership for Safety Excellence, Safety Orientation (eLearning course available) and WHMIS 2015 (eLearning course available). Successful completion awards participants a COR™ certificate and Letter of Good Standing valid for 1 (one) year.   Once COR™ is achieved, certification must be renewed with the completion of an annual audit.

The COR™ program was created to help construction companies understand employer and worker rights and responsibilities, but to also increase awareness for OH&S Legislation and how it specifically applies to each individual workplace.   Through participation in COR™ employers and employees in the construction and related industries come to recognize that injury prevention must be an essential part of their business conduct and daily work routine.
