Risk assessment and the principles of prevention form the foundation of the course. Emphasis is placed on communication skills and promotion of worker engagement, including preparation of an induction.

Occupational health is covered to ensure delegates understand the importance of managing exposure to substances, vibrations, noise and dust.  Delegates will undertake project work relevant to site management including site set up and preparation on site rules.
