Available HSR Refresher OHS Training Courses
HSR Refresher OHS Training Course – Plant
This course is an opportunity to revisit aspects of the HSR Initial OHS Training Course and refresh your knowledge of the Legislative Framework, HSR Powers and Risk Management to name a few. The course utilises case studies to identify and control hazards related to plant which will help improve the knowledge and skills of HSRs and Deputy HSRs.
HSR Refresher OHS Training Course – Work related violence
Workplace violence is a real issue in many workplaces. This interactive “HSR” training course includes relevant case studies and activities where HSRs can learn more about participating in the identification, prevention and control of the risks associated with work related violence.
The HSR Refresher OHS Training Courses, although primarily developed for HSRs and Deputy HSRs are also relevant for managers, supervisors, Health and Safety Committee members and any other employee who has an interest in learning about and promoting health and safety in the workplace.
The HSR Refresher OHS Training Courses are interactive; activity based and provide an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of workplace hazards.
