SHEQ Representative Course
April 23rd, 2010This course is also known as the Workplace Inspection Course.
COURSE OBJECTIVES On successful completion of this module the learner will be able to explain and document structured workplace inspection observations and findings. These will be reported to and evaluated by SH&E Committee members before being submitted to management for corrective action and in accordance with OHS legislation.
The representative is the eyes and the ears of the employees.
A H&S/SHE/SHEQ system is incomplete if it is not a team effort including management and the employees. Through continual inspections and meetings within the working environment hazards and risks can be pro-actively identified and rectified towards a safe and healthy workplace.
COURSE OUTCOMES At the end of this course with the use of the SHEQ representative/workplace inspection manuals you will be able to:
- Explain the duties and responsibilities of employers, employees, and SHEQ representatives and committees in promoting and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment and community.
- Discuss the general hazard management steps that should be included in company inspections, evaluations and reporting systems.
- Identify workplace hazards in the context of your workplace and evaluate your conformance to legislated standards.
- Record deviations and make recommendations for corrective actions.
- Participate effectively in SHEQ Committee meetings and monitor corrective action procedures.
PLEASE NOTE It is advisable and highly recommended to have prior knowledge and skill in terms of health & safety within an organizational structure before enrolling into this course. This course is presented at a high level and fast pace. It is always much more effective if we use your own company documentation during training. It is suggested that you bring your H&S appointment letter; example of the committee meeting minutes; example of your inspection sheet and any other related documentation to this training session.
