About course
Please Note: important changes to the Health and Safety Representative (HSR) refresher training requirements have come into effect in Queensland as of July 29, 2024. These changes are crucial to ensure that your workplace remains compliant with the latest regulations and that your HSRs are fully equipped to maintain a safe working environment and maintain their compliance with the regulations.
• Existing HSRs must now complete HSR refresher training every 12 months after the initial training (the previous period was every 3 years)
• If you are a current HSR and it has been more than 12 months since your last HSR course (initial or refresher), you should compete the 1-day refresher training as soon as practical to maintain your compliance with the regulations
