Awareness programs

« human health at the heart of our interventions »

Darspec’s awareness program is designed to help building owners and property managers; senior management, plant managers and those responsible for occupational health and safety to preserve and use the drinking water wisely in the buildings under their responsibility. We discuss the most frequent causes of contamination, the repercussions on human health and operations as well as the solutions to be put in place to avoid a potential disaster.

Following from our programs, you will know how to ensure that your building complies with the laws and codes in force and thus avoid possible litigation in the event of contamination of drinking water.

Training begins when the project starts

The implementation of any building water management and protection program is most successful when all participants receive proper training. We recommend that you start each project with tailor-made training to identify the targeted objectives, the potential risks of slippage and to understand the corrective measures brought by the upgrading of your installations.

Property owners and managers, occupational health, and safety officials as well as personnel involved in plumbing, sanitation and building maintenance will benefit from this training.

  • Keep their knowledge up to date on current standards and recent changes in the industry,
  • Know the errors related to the installation and maintenance of emergency shower networks,
  • Demystify the types of mixing valves and their applications,
  • Implement water saving strategies in order to reduce the ecological footprint and reduce operating costs,
  • Plan a good installation of a booster station.

Our training, offered in the workplace, is tailored to the duties of managers and support staff, namely:

  • Occupational health and safety professionals,
