Anyone who works with a forklift has to be aware of the dangers and risks involved. This course is designed to teach you about the risks involved and how to stay safe. This course will also help you obtain your forklift license.
Health and Safety Representative (HSR) Training
As of 2017, PCBUs may also appoint a Work Health and Safety Officer (WHSO). The WHSO performs many of the same general functions performed by the HSR, including notifying the PCBU about safety matters.
Safety officers may also assist with responding to incidents. However, workers still have the right to elect health and safety representatives.
At AlertForce, our HSR course includes comprehensive training on the powers and functions of the HSR. As outlined in the Work Health and Safety Act 2011, the HSR is elected to represent the interests of a workgroup in health and safety matters. The HSR may also investigate complaints related to safety issues and monitor safety measures taken by the PCBU.
Manual Handling Training
Improper manual handling may increase the risk of workplace health issues for health care, construction, office, and warehouse workers. With our course, you receive knowledge on how to properly perform tasks that involve manual handling.
10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention
