Safety starts with you
Safety is important. We take safety very seriously at OPG. Ontario Power Generation expects every worker, young and not-so-young, to return home at the end of every day in the same physical condition as they started it in.
Young Worker Safety Video
Your passport to safety
OPG has created Young Worker Safety Programs to improve the safety knowledge and awareness of our young and future workers. We send Young Worker Safety Advocates out to talk to young people about health and safety in the workplace. We are also a proud sponsor of Passport to Safety, a national on-line training program that builds your understanding of your rights and responsibility regarding health and safety. If you are a young worker looking to build your résumé, you can complete this challenging and educational quiz that will improve your general safety awareness. Once you successfully pass, you will be awarded a “transcript” that can be attached to your resume to demonstrate to future employers your basic awareness of health and safety.

Dam safety
There are dangers in coming too close to hydroelectric dams and stations. A spot that looks calm and safe one moment can become dangerous within a few seconds as water levels and flows change. This can happen without warning. Calm waters or a dry riverbed could change quickly into one with rapidly moving, dangerous waters. It is also important to obey all warning signs, fences, buoys, booms and barriers. They are put there to protect you. The areas inside are dangerous, so stay clear of them. Download these files: Stay Clear Stay Safe and The Kid's Guide to Staying Clear and Staying Safe to learn more about dam safety.
