General Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Canadian law, Golden Safety, its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, and affiliates shall NOT be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with your use of our services, products, training, or information, even if Golden Safety has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Training & Certification Disclaimer
Completion of any Golden Safety training course or receipt of a certificate does not guarantee compliance with all applicable OHS legislation in your specific jurisdiction, nor does it guarantee workplace safety. Training certificates represent the successful completion of generic training only. Employers remain solely responsible for providing workplace-specific training and ensuring full regulatory compliance.
Consulting Services Disclaimer
Any advice, recommendations, documents, programs, or plans provided by Golden Safety are for informational and guidance purposes only. Golden Safety is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. All recommendations should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before implementation. Golden Safety shall not be liable for any regulatory penalties, fines, workplace injuries, incidents, or damages arising from the implementation or non-implementation of any consulting advice.
Workplace Safety Responsibility
Golden Safety’s services do not transfer, substitute, or reduce the legal obligations of employers, supervisors, or workers under the Alberta Occupational Health and Safety Act, the Canada Labour Code, the Hazardous Products Act, or any other applicable legislation. Employers remain solely and fully responsible for the health and safety of their workers at all times.
International Disclaimer
Golden Safety services are designed based on Canadian OHS legislation and standards. While our services may be purchased by clients worldwide, Golden Safety makes no representation that any service, certificate, training program, or product meets the specific legal or regulatory requirements of any jurisdiction outside Canada. International clients acknowledge full responsibility for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws in their own country.
Maximum Aggregate Liability
In the event Golden Safety is found liable for any claim, its total aggregate liability shall not exceed the total amount paid by you to Golden Safety for the specific service or product giving rise to the claim in the twelve (12) months preceding the event.
No Guarantee of Results
Golden Safety makes no representations or warranties that use of our services will result in passing government audits, achieving COR/SECOR certification, passing any regulatory inspection, obtaining any specific contract or tender, or achieving any specific safety performance outcome.
Force Majeure
Golden Safety shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance resulting from causes beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, pandemic, government action, natural disaster, power failure, internet outage, or any other event outside Golden Safety’s reasonable control.
5. Training & Certification Terms
Certificate Validity
Training certificates issued by Golden Safety are valid for the period stated on the certificate (typically 3 years). It is the responsibility of the certificate holder and their employer to track renewal dates. Golden Safety is not responsible for expired certificates or any consequences arising from certificate expiry.
Generic vs. Workplace-Specific Training
All Golden Safety online courses provide generic safety training. Generic training must be supplemented by workplace-specific training provided by the employer as required by the Alberta OHS Act, Canada Labour Code, and all applicable provincial/territorial OHS legislation. Golden Safety certificates do not satisfy workplace-specific training requirements.
Assessment Integrity
By enrolling in any Golden Safety course, you agree to complete all assessments honestly and without assistance from unauthorized persons or sources. Fraudulent completion of assessments may result in immediate certificate revocation without refund.
Regulatory Acceptance — Canada & International
Golden Safety makes no guarantee that certificates or training materials will be accepted by any specific employer, regulatory body, government agency, WorkSafe board, or insurance provider in Canada or internationally. International clients are solely responsible for verifying the acceptability of our training with their applicable authority before enrollment.
