HSR representatives have a vital role in workplace OHS and under the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 (OHS Act) their role, powers and entitlements are well recognised.
Under section 67 of the Victorian OHS Act 2004 an employer, if requested, must allow an elected HSR and elected Deputy HSR to attend a WorkSafe approved “HSR Initial OHS Training” course on paid time, pay the cost of the course and any other associated costs.
HSRs/DHSRs can choose the course they wish to attend in consultation with their employer.
RMIT University is approved to deliver the HSR Initial OHS Training Course (V3.0).
Course content includes:
• interpreting the OHS legislative framework and its relationships to the HSR and the workplace,
• identifying key parties, their legislative obligations and duties,
• establishing representation in the workplace,
• participating in consultation and issue resolution,
• representing the designated work group,
• issuing a Provisional Improvement Notice (PIN) and directing the cessation of work.
This practical course is designed for HSRs and deputy HSRs. Although Managers, Supervisors, Health and safety committee members and other people involved with health and safety in the workplace may also benefit from attending.
Total course hours are 35 plus breaks.
