WHS-Risk-Management-training

WHS Risk Management Training for Managers and Supervisors is an excellent way to invest in your business and ensure compliance with WHS Legislation. Our WHS training helps managers and supervisors to create a safe and healthy workplace, which boosts employee satisfaction and productivity while preventing injuries and minimising workers compensation costs.

This short course offers a practical introduction to managing safety in the workplace, and is crucial for all management levels from supervisors to company directors. Participants gain a greater understanding of their WHS obligations under current legislation. They also learn effective communication strategies to better challenge and resolve unsafe behaviour, and to make workplace safety meetings more engaging. Education is reinforced through practical exercises, interactive activities and case studies that make learning interesting and rewarding.

WHS Risk Management training is also referred to as the “Line Managers course” or OHS Risk Management Training.
