Work Health and Safety

Course overview

Every year in Australia, workplace accidents result in over 500 deaths and 600,000 compensable injuries. Workplace accidents, injuries and sickness cause personal pain and suffering, financial loss to employees, and organisational costs.

Topics covered include:

  • How to identify hazards and risks
  • Following WHS policies and procedures
  • Using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • Performing correct manual handling procedures
  • Preventing accidents in the workplace
  • Following emergency procedures.
