Why Study OHS through Worksafe Training?
Online solutions for nationally accredited OHS training.
Worksafe Australia is an online training site developed in partnership with a leading RTO (Registered Training Organisation) and devoted to OHS courses.
Why Study OHS?
Rising Salaries
Qualified OHS professionals are in high demand throughout the country, especially in the mining and resources industry, and salaries are growing.
New Harmonisation Laws
The new laws that combine all state OHS legislation across Australia (commonly referred to as 'harmonised OHS laws') will take effect in January 2012.
Under the new laws, officers (including company directors, secretaries, administrators or liquidators) may be personally liable for failing to ensure the health and safety of workers at work - thereby making it even more important for proper OHS training.
Requirements for Mining and Oil & Gas Industries
Australia’s mining and oil & gas industries are major employers of OHS qualified staff. To get into these industries, you need to be aware of safe work practices and demonstrate your commitment to them. A recognised qualification in OHS can help boost your employment opportunities.
What OHS qualifications do you need?
The Certificate IV in Occupational Health and Safety is now the minimum requirement for OHS management in most Australia workplaces.
The Cert IV is suitable if you're responsible for OHS in your workplace and need the necessary skills and qualification required to carry out your duties. It is also ideal if you are seeking to become a:
- WorkCover acceptable trainer and assessor
- human resource (HR) practitioner
- safety officer
- OHS officer
Our OHS courses are delivered online, giving you the flexibility of fitting your study around your life. You can enrol anytime and learn at your own pace.
You learn:
- How to comply with OHS regulations, identify hazards, control risk and contribute to OHS in your workplace.
- How to incorporate safe work practices into all workplace activities and to participate in the organisation's OHS management practices.
Your course includes comprehensive student support to help you throughout your study. You'll graduate with a government-accredited, nationally recognised qualification that can boost your employment opportunities.
