Why do this course?

NOTE: HSC chairpersons need to be able to lead meetings, control interactions; and plan, write, and implement the meeting agenda and follow-up actions.

In addition to the functions of a WHS committee as stated in the WHS Act, the course covers information from the NSW Consultation Code of Practice and other Regulator guides relevant to WHS consultation, committee functions, committee meetings, and solutions to common problems.

 

This course focuses on the chairperson's role in ensuring the functions of an HSC are carried out as per the WHS Act including dealing with attempts to pass off duties or functions on to the HSC that belong to other WHS duty holders or are not in accordance with WHS consultation requirements as per the New South Wales WHS Act.

​

The course covers actions a chairperson takes in running meetings and managing the committee's involvement in the consultation process between the decision makers of their organisation (representatives of the PCBU) and the workforce on WHS matters.
