After being trained by the U.S. TWI Service during WWII, the Canadian Ministry of Labour adapted Job Instruction to the narrow field of safety, yielding an impressive J-skill program to the TWI world - simply called Job Safety. You can download a copy of the Canadian manual here or go to the Job Safety page at TWI Service.
Canada is a small country, but quite resourceful. This link will load a PDF with a quick fact sheet on the Canadian contribution to the WWII production effort.

Job Instruction
“A new concept in the field of industrial training was definitely emerging on a national scale – a concept of training destined to influence the thinking of people in every industry."
Excerpt from, The ‘First Million’ brochure, where the TWI Service made history in receiving the first Industry Award decorating a government agency.
February, 1944
Job Relations
“’Leadership’” has been the subject of an extraordinary amount of dogmatically stated nonsense. Some, it is true, has been communicated by observers who have had no experience themselves in directing the activities of others; but much of it has come from men of ample experience, often of established reputations as leaders.”
The Nature of Leadership,
Chester Barnard, 1940
