What National Safety Services does

National Safety Services Inc. is a Calgary-headquartered Canadian occupational health and safety (OHS) consulting and training firm serving organizations across Canada through regional offices in Vancouver, Hamilton, and Middle Sackville. The firm delivers customized OHS consulting services including needs assessments, gap analysis, risk management, contractor readiness, investigations, emergency management, fatigue risk management, and WCB performance review, grounded in ISO 31000, ISO 45001, and CSA Z1000 frameworks. It also operates an Investigation Unit led by senior professionals with regulatory prosecution and enforcement backgrounds.

The company's technology backbone is a Learning Management System (LMS) powered by Luma1, which is SCORM-compliant and supports training delivery in over 70 languages. The platform centralizes safety and orientation training, automates certifications, expiry notifications, and compliance tracking, and generates audit-ready reports. Training products are delivered in three formats: online learning, instructor-led training (in-person and virtual), and a Masterclass Series featuring credentialed experts with backgrounds including NASA, Transport Canada, and the European Commission. Additional offerings include speaking engagements, a Resource Centre of templates and tools, and customized course development.

The business model combines professional services (consulting, customized training development, investigations, and speaking engagements) with a recurring training and LMS subscription stream and a one-time online course purchase channel. Go-to-market is enterprise-focused, with direct field sales for consulting engagements targeting clients across construction, manufacturing, healthcare, energy, and municipal sectors, supplemented by an e-commerce platform for individual course purchases and inside sales for bulk/volume registrations. Customers span Fortune 500 enterprises (Suncor, Lafarge Canada/Amrize, Capstone Infrastructure) to smaller construction and government clients. CEO David Myrol, K.C. (appointed May 2025) leads the firm alongside COO Nicole Orr, CRSP, and the senior leadership team.
