What is Asphalt Safety (CAN)?

Asphalt work brings together high heat, heavy machinery, and busy job sites—so knowing how to stay safe isn’t optional. This training gives crew members a practical understanding of the risks they may encounter during paving, mixing, and asphalt handling. It highlights the behaviours, protective measures, and on-the-ground decisions that help keep workers safe when temperatures rise and equipment is in motion. Learners get a clear, real-world look at common hazards and the straightforward practices that reduce injuries and maintain a controlled, efficient work environment.

Course Overview

Working with asphalt involves exposure to heat, fumes, and moving equipment—all of which present potential hazards. Asphalt Safety Training provides operators and crew members with essential knowledge to work safely around asphalt paving, mixing, and application equipment.

This course covers safe operating procedures, exposure risks, proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and first aid considerations. Learners will also review common job site hazards, from burns and inhalation risks to traffic control and environmental factors.

Interactive quizzes throughout reinforce key learning points and prepare participants for the final written exam. Upon completion, learners will receive a certificate and wallet card, along with an employer checklist for verifying practical skills in the field.
