Refrigeration Safety Awareness

Refrigeration Safety Awareness (RSA)

This 8-hour course provides the safety training required to apply to write the Technical Safety BC Refrigeration Safety Awareness (RSA) exam.

The RSA certificate allows you to be present and monitor a refrigeration plant (up to 1,000 kW) under general supervision or a risk-assessed status. It does not allow plant operation or repairs, but it does allow you to shut down the plant or start safety procedures when trained and assigned.

This course is for people who work in or around regulated refrigeration facilities, and for IFO or RO certificate holders needing a safety refresher.

What you’ll learn

  • Refrigeration safety rules
  • System basics
