How on-site delivery works in Markham

We bring the training to your Markham premises. You supply a room and, where the course requires a practical evaluation, the equipment your team actually uses. That matters: an operator assessed on your own lift truck in your own aisles is a more meaningful competency record than one assessed on unfamiliar equipment elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver Fall Protection training in Markham?

Yes. Syon Safety delivers Fall Protection and Elevated Work Platform Training on-site at Markham workplaces and throughout York Region. Sessions run 4 to 8 hours depending on scope and can be scheduled around your shift pattern.

What is the difference between Fall Protection and Working at Heights?

Working at Heights is the CPO-approved program required specifically for construction projects. Fall protection training covers the same hazards for industrial and other non-construction workplaces, where the CPO-approved program is not the governing requirement.

At what height is fall protection required in Ontario?

The trigger height depends on the sector and the regulation that applies. In industrial establishments the general threshold is three metres, while construction projects have their own requirements under O. Reg. 213/91.

Do scissor lift operators need separate training?

Yes. Elevated work platform operation requires its own training and a documented practical evaluation, which can be combined with fall protection training in a single session.
