Work Health and Safety Act 2012

As from 1 January 2013  the WHS Act 2012 and Regulations were introduced.  There are a few changes in relation to the previous legislation – mainly about better consultation, better record keeping and making sure BEFORE you start a job, that you have "safe systems" to make sure that every job is done in a way that does not put anyone at risk. Training on the Act and Regulations and documentation to assist with compliance will start this month in Hobart  - on Tuesday 12th, Devonport -  Monday 18th and Launceston  - Tuesday 19th March, 2013.    Training  times 4 – 7pm at each session.  After the first session you will walk away with a policy that you understand and are comfortable with.  In the following sessions you will be assisted to make up templates and registers that will make sure you address all the issues required to have "safe systems". You have the choice of doing them paper based or we can offer you a way to do it electronically as well - your choice.
Note:  due to the popularity of this Training MBT is advertising expressions of interest for Round 2.  Click here for Registration Form.

At the end of the four sessions you will have:

  • The confidence that you understand what is required of you

  • A safety policy you are required to have under the Act

  • The reporting mechanisms to deliver what you state in your policy

  • Enough CPD points for a year

We will be using templates supplied by Workplace Standards Tasmania throughout the four sessions. For further information  Click Here for "Expression of Interest" for Training Course - Complying with WHS and Regulations.
