Work Health & Safety (HSRs) Courses
As of 1st January 2012, OHS representatives and OHS committees have been replaced by Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs) and Health and Safety Committees (HSCs) under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011.
New arrangements have been put in place to allow for HSRs to receive approved training. The role of an HSR includes additional powers and functions compared to an OHS representative, including the ability to issue a provisional improvement notice (PIN) and to direct that unsafe work practices cease.
NEW!
Health and Safety Representative - 5 Day Course.
A five-day initial HSR training course is now available for newly elected HSRs who have not previously completed the older four-day WorkCover course in OHS Consultation
Health and safety representatives (HSRs) need relevant knowledge and skills to enable them to exercise their powers for the purpose of promoting and ensuring the health and safety of members of designated work groups. HSRs are able to obtain such knowledge and skills through attendance at HSR training courses accredited by WorkCover NSW.
This five day course may be run 1 day per week for five weeks, or broken up to suit your needs.
The course does not have to run five days in a row, and the courses may be conducted at your site or one of our training centres.
