Emergency Scene Traffic Control WorkSafeBC
changed the OH&S Guideline 18.4.1 Section (3) regarding Traffic
Control:
The course was developed with the intention of being delivered to a broad scope of first responders and addresses the 6 points set out in the WorkSafeBC guideline for Emergency Scene Management. There is a 3 ½ hour workshop portion of the course as well as an optional practical component for experience in the field. This is the ideal course for any company or employee seeking information and training in the basic use of equipment, PPE and safe work procedures of traffic control. It also teaches the zones of an incident/accident scene and emphasizes safety. Where the traffic control situation will persist for longer than 2 hours, and it is necessary to direct traffic through sections of a two-way road temporarily reduced to one lane, it is expected that the emergency services' worker directing traffic would be trained in the manner of the high-risk TCP.

Emergency
Services 
This
course has been designed to introduce the safe operation of emergency
vehicles. The focus will consider vehicle response to evasive actions
by the operator as well as safe backing. This practical operation
will take the operator through a variety of stop and go problems,
simulating traffic situations encountered routinely. Vehicles utilized
are a pumper and smaller response vehicle.
This
course takes a hands-on approach to traffic safety by improving
the driver's vehicle control skills as well as his/her understanding
of the traffic environment. This 4 - hour course starts with short
classroom discussions then moves to in-vehicle operation. Instead
of reacting to events after they are beyond the driver's control,
HRT gives drivers a positive game plan to minimize the chance of
being trapped in hazardous situations. Maximum of 4 students per
training vehicle. You can use your vehicle for the best results.
This course will cover: Vehicle setup for maximum vision, injury
protection & control; traction management & vehicle control; B.A.S.I.C.
skills enhancement (Braking, Accelerating, Steering, In Control);
Space, Time, Vision application; scanning to identify warning of
potential conflict and strategies for dealing with potentially hazardous
situations. Take it one step further and include an AUTO SMART component
linking safety with fuel efficient driving.
