Site Induction

Course Overview

It is important for all workers to be properly inducted to sites to ensure that the site's operations run smoothly and with minimal hindrance. This include inducting workers to make them aware of the various policies and procedures surrounding concerns such as Work Workplace Health and Safety (WHS), environmental management, security and emergency response.

This course can be tailored to introduce workers to the general policies and procedures that they may encounter while on your site. It also covers the important information regarding emergency procedures, WHS concerns, and security guidelines.
