About The Course
This unit of competency specifies the mandatory work health and safety training required prior to undertaking construction work. The course requires the student to demonstrate personal awareness, skills related to health and safety legislation necessary to work safely on a construction site, how to identify onsite risks and hazards and the appropriate controls to implement, and how to prevent injury or harm to self and others.
The student assessment requires the student to orally reporting common construction hazards, understanding basic risk control measures, and identifying procedures for responding to potential incidents and emergencies. It also covers correctly selecting and fitting common personal protective equipment (PPE) used for construction work.
