As a participant in the one-day refresher training course for Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs) under the NSW Work Health and Safety (WHS) legislation, this course meets the requirements of the WHS Regulations for HSRs elected under the WHS Act. In NSW this is the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (WHS Act) and the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2017 (WHS Regulation). The WHS Act commenced on 1 January 2012.

This course is delivered over five days with the content of each day building on the previous. Below is an overview of the five-day course.Day one provides an overview of the WHS legislative framework, duties of various parties and key terminology. It also covers the role of SafeWork NSW and penalties for non-compliance.Day two covers the requirements for consultation in the workplace on work health and safety issues and the mechanisms available. The role of HSRs and Health and Safety Committees (HSCs) and other available mechanisms are discussed as well as entitlements and protections.Day three examines the consultative approach that can be used in resolving workplace health and safety issues through negotiation and conflict resolution and the skills HSRs can utilise to achieve successful outcomes. It also provides learners with the skills and knowledge to identify hazards and ways in which they can be eliminated or minimised.Day four builds on the outcomes of day three with several practical exercises. It addresses incident notification and includes activities demonstrating how HSRs can contribute to incident investigation.Day five provides learners with the information and skills HSRs require regarding the issuing of Provisional Improvement Notices (PINs) and directing unsafe work to cease where negotiation and issue resolution has been unsuccessful or immediate action is required.The course concludes with a summary and review of the course learning outcomes and discussion on sources of information that can assist HSRs in the continuous learning process.

The purpose of this course is to equip learners with an understanding of the learning objectives relating to ISO 45001: 2018, the New ISO Standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems – Requirements, with Guidance for Use.Prior KnowledgeThere are no prior knowledge requirements for this course; however, it is advisable for learners to have knowledge of Annex SL.

This course involves the skills and knowledge required to confine small emergencies in a facility as well as working within the command, control and coordination structure of an Emergency Control Organisation (ECO).Small emergencies in a facility include incidents such as small fires that can be controlled using a fire extinguisher; chemical spills that can be controlled using facility personal protective clothing and equipment and a spill kit; or a vehicle accident where there is no significant injury or damage. An ECO's priority is the safety of facility occupants and visitors during an emergency which means ECO members are responsible for pre-emergency, emergency and post emergency actionsThis course has been developed to cover the facilities as specified in Australian Standard AS3745 and AS4083. For this course, as covered by AS3745 and/or AS4083, occupants are people attending a facility on a permanent or temporary basis such as an employee, contractor, student or resident, but not a visitor or patient and a facility is a building, structure or workplace that is, or may be, occupied by people (occupants).All aspects of this course must be undertaken in line with legislative requirements, organisational policies and procedures, and accepted safe work practices.Course Content:Undertaking pre-emergency planningPreparing for emergency situationsIdentifying and assessing an emergencyTaking appropriate actions in an emergencySafely confining emergenciesUsing initial response equipmentAssisting with post emergency activitiesReporting on the facility's emergency response.Assessment:Theory Assessments with multiple choice and short answer questionsPractical Assessments, with tasks including:A prestart inspection on a fire extinguisherCorrect use of portable fire extinguishersCorrect use of a fire blanketUndertake pre-emergency planningTake appropriate actions in an emergencyAssist with post emergency activities
