Health and Safety Training Course
This year we are changing from our mechanical workshop experience to formal Health and Safety (H&S) Training. With the ever increasing awareness and responsibility around health and safety in the work environment, this workshop in intended to introduce the students to the responsibilities they will face in their engineering career. The workshop will include 12 hours of training in H&S and will be offered on a number of occasions during the year. The work shop will be taught outside of the normal teaching hours. The training will be divided into 3 modules including:
- Site Safe Consultants course which will give successful students the “Consultants Passport” that aligns the training with some of the IPENZ Competence Standards.
- Site Specific Safety Plans which are the industry recognised methods for planning and assessing H&S requirements and risks in construction, that are the industry recognised methods for planning and assessing H&S requirements and risks in construction.
- Construction Management and the definition of Principals in H&S law as well as a Principal's obligations and responsibilities.
The programme will have interactive components and assessments to confirm a transfer of learning. More details about the training and sign-up will be provided in the coming weeks.
