Workplaces are required to closely abide by WHS Acts and Regulations.

The roles of Safety Officers and Management are critical in this process. 

With the assistance and guidance of our highly experienced WHS Trainers, you will gain a strong understanding of WHS legislation, work practices and their application in the workplace.

Workplace Health and Safety

Industry and Legislation place different requirements on workplaces and individuals for Work Health and Safety. These can also vary from State to State.

There are nationally recognised qualifications, state recognised Certifications and Workplace Safety Training courses that all may have relevance in your workplace. We can assist you to determine which courses hold relevance for your intended outcomes.
