Provisional Improvement Notice Training (PIN) 3hrs

The Provisional Improvement Notice (PIN) was introduced into the Workplace Health and Safety Legislation in 2009 to assist and empower Workplace Health and Safety Representatives (WHSR) in the resolution of safety issues. Up until this time a WHSR was entitled to ask an inspector to review a workplace issue, however now a WHSR has the power to issue a notice.

Once completed, the course aims to assist participants with:

Identifying Workplace Health & Safety information by:

• Sourcing information from Queensland WHS legislation

• Checking information for currency.

Applying relevant consultative methods to assist in the resolution of disputes including:
 

• Attending workplace inspections and interviews associated with suspected contraventions

• Apply appropriate techniques when representing workers and consulting with management

• Communicate with WHSQ inspectors in the process of formalizing or discharging Provisional Improvement Notices (PINs).

Applying the correct process with regards to the issuing of PINs by:
 

• Completing reports that fulfil all legislative requirements

• Ensuring effective PIN preparation and delivery.
