OHS Induction and Training for School Staff

Review of OHS training for school staff

The principal or their delegate must ensure the school’s OHS training register or equivalent template is reviewed and updated (as required) at least annually. This can be scheduled into the school’s OHS activities calendar (XLSX). Additional reviews of required training may be required when:

• an incident or near miss has occurred, such as a failure to safely use or operate equipment
• a task, process or equipment has been altered or is new
• there has been a request by a school staff member or elected HSR
• it is a new requirement of the department such as an additional mandatory eLearn
• a new risk is identified, or the level of risk has changed, such as parent aggressive behaviour or student challenging behaviours.

Training that is identified and completed can be added to the school’s OHS risk register as a control (refer to the OHS Risk Planning and Management policy for further information).

Completion of OHS eLearning modules can be monitored directly by principals through the LearnED platform.
