Course Details

Statistics show that between 1 January 2017 and 27 September 2017 there have been 23 fatalities as a result of accidents in the workplace in Australia. The White Card course in QLD is designed to raise awareness of best practices to eliminate risks that cause injuries and fatalities in the workplace. To work in the Construction Industry, you need to complete a White Card course.

This course requires the ability to demonstrate personal awareness of Workplace Health & Safety (WHS) legislative requirements, and the basic principles of risk management and prevention of injury and illness in the construction industry.
