TASMANIAN LAW AND LICENCE TO CONDUCT HIGH RISK WORK The Tasmanian Workplace Health and Safety Regulations 2012 specify the classes of high risk work

and the conditions under which a person may conduct high risk work.

The Regulations specify the mandatory training that must be undertaken, through a Registered

Training Organisation and against a Unit of Competency, before a person may attempt the Licence to

Conduct High Risk Work assessment. Alternatively, an applicant may provide evidence that this

training has occurred and request recognition of their prior learning.

Assessment Instruments are now established and are the same across Australia. Workplace

Standards Tasmania is responsible for Accrediting and Registering Assessors who may conduct the

assessments, under arrangements with Registered Training Organisations.

In establishing our current Licence to Conduct High Risk Work training and assessment practices

TransTrain has worked closely with Workplace Standards Tasmania.

A copy of the Regulations is available at www.thelaw.tas.gov.au and an extract, specific to Licence to

Conduct High Risk Work, is available from TransTrain.

REQUIREMENT TO BE LICENCED Under the law in Tasmania effective from 1/1/2013, if you do not hold a current licence to conduct

high risk work (or a valid Assessment Summary Interim Licence), then you cannot conduct high risk

work, unless you are enrolled and have completed introductory training and are working under the

supervision of a licenced operator.

It is no longer legal for an unlicensed person to be supervised by a licensed person in

conducting a class of high risk work, UNLESS the unlicensed person is ALSO formally

enrolled with a Registered Training Organisation AND completing training for the specified

national unit of competency.

The penalty for individuals is up to $3600, and up to $18,000 for a body corporate.

http://www.thelaw.tas.gov.au/


DUTY TO ENSURE DIRECT SUPERVISION

Regulation 84 specifies the duty of a Person Conducting Business or Undertaking (PCBU) to provide

direct supervision. A PCBU must ensure that a person supervising the work of a person carrying out

high risk work whilst undergoing a formal program of training through a RTO provides direct

supervision unless:

a) The nature or circumstances of a particular task make direct supervision impracticable or

unnecessary; and

b) The reduced level of supervision will not place the health or safety of the supervised person

or any other person at risk.

Note that the person providing supervision must be licenced to perform that class of high risk

work.

PCBU TO OBTAIN (AND KEEP) WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF LICENCE

Regulation 85 specifies that a PCBU must not direct or allow a worker to carry out high risk work for

which a high risk work licence is required unless the person sees written evidence provided by the

worker that the worker has the relevant high risk work licence. The regulation also specifies that the

PCBU must see written evidence that any person supervising a person conducting high risk work

under a training program holds the relevant high risk work licence for that class of work.

This written evidence must be kept by the PCBU for at least one year after the high risk work is

carried out, and for at least one year after the last occasion on which the worker performs the

supervision work.

The penalty for individuals is up to $1200, and up to $6000 for a body corporate.

TRANSTRAIN PATHWAYS TO THE LICENCE

You must be aged at least 18 years before you can apply for a Licence to Conduct High Risk Work. If

you are less than 18 years of age, please phone TransTrain to discuss options.

TransTrain offers four pathway options for applicants wanting to achieve a Licence to Conduct High

CODE OF PRACTICE

» Code of Practice We want our programs to be successful and we want our learners to succeed! We have developed this Code of Practice to explain our commitment to high standards in all aspects of our assessment, recognition and learning support services for our clients. This Code of Practice also describes the rights of our clients and the standards of service that they should expect from us. Our continued recognition as a Registered Training Organisation is dependant upon our compliance with the statements we make in this Code of Practice. › Supporting assessment, recognition and learning for clients: TransTrain policies, procedures and management approach is centred around providing a range of assessment, recognition and learning support services to clients to give them the best possible chance of success. This includes confirming access to:

A safe and appropriate learning and assessment environment which may include client workplaces;

All necessary resources as specified in national standards – to a typical industry standard;

Qualified trainers and assessors who meet the minimum qualifications as specified in the relevant standards for Trainers & Assessors and who are endorsed by the relevant regulating body to provide the services;

Trainers and assessors who have technical expertise in the competencies that the client is seeking to learn or have assessed / recognised.

We will also ensure that our services comply with all relevant legislation and regulations, including occupational health and safety, workplace harassment, victimisation and bullying, anti-discrimination, vocational education and training, privacy and apprenticeships / traineeships. TransTrain representatives will not engage in discussions associated with personal values with respect to politics, religion, race, sexual preference or gender. TransTrain Clients will be counselled if they seek to engage in such discussions or expression of views during the conduct of TransTrain services and may be excluded from programs if they continue to engage in such discussion. TransTrain will also provide guidance to clients who wish to access other providers for language, literacy & numeracy assistance, welfare & guidance services and other specific support services. Please let us know early in your contact with us if you have any specific needs which impact on your access to our services. › Admission to TransTrain Programs: Admission to programs offered by TransTrain will be in a manner that is consistent with the principles of social justice and will be carried out in an ethical and responsible manner. Admission criteria of qualifications and or licensing programs will be discussed with the client prior to enrolment as part of a TransTrain information session. Eligibility criteria for licensing programs are detailed in information packages and listed on our web site. It is the responsibility of the client to ensure that they meet regulatory eligibility criteria (for example obtaining a Learner Permit where required for licence upgrades). TransTrain reserves the right to counsel applicants regarding the suitability of any proposed program. › Marketing:

We will only advertise nationally recognised products and services that we are endorsed to provide and hold within our Scope of Registration.

We will only advertise and offer programs for licensing purposes or industry endorsement where we have endorsement from the relevant authority or industry body to offer the service.

We will take every effort to ensure that no false or misleading comparisons will be drawn with any other provider or course.

We will not use information about individual clients in our marketing materials without the permission of the client.

› Confidentiality of Client Information: TransTrain maintains records of client achievements in an electronic format for a minimum period of 30 years. Hard copies of assessment records and associated documentation may be kept for up to 7 years and then destroyed. Information about individual client achievements is maintained in a confidential manner, however clients must be aware that this information is accessible by the following personnel:

The client themselves, with verification of identity by a TransTrain staff member;

Officers of Skills Tasmania, Tasmanian Qualifications Authority, Australian Skills Quality Authority, and Workplace Standards Tasmania, for auditing purposes only;






TransTrain staff members and Associates, all of whom have signed a confidentiality statement binding them to respect the privileged nature of client information and agreeing to not disclose any material without the permission of the client;

Where clients participate in a program for the purpose of licensing (eg, Dangerous Goods, Heavy Vehicle, High Risk Work, or Motorcycle), the minimum records required will be made available to the licensing authority.

We provide reports on progress and outcomes to employers where the program is an employment based service or where an employer is nominated to receive reports on the enrolment / registration form

We provide reports on progress and outcomes to employment agencies, rehabilitation service providers and other third party interests where these are nominated to receive reports on the enrolment / registration form;

We may ask employers and other employees to contribute to the assessment of clients. Please note that these are detailed on our enrolment form along with a statement about information protection. › Our Standards on Client Funds and Refunds: Fees are required to be paid prior to programs, unless alternative credit arrangements have been made. If you wish to apply for credit please contact TransTrain. Credit applications may take up to 2 weeks to be considered and advised Fees paid by clients are be kept in trust and disbursed to TransTrain service providers at the commencement of each stage of the service. Specific cancellation terms and conditions are documented on each service Confirmation Letter. In general,

If you cancel your program within the no-refund period or fail to attend your scheduled service no refunds will be made and a new booking with full payment will be required for future services. If you are within the no-refund period you may substitute another person who meets the program eligibility criteria in your place.

If we are unable to provide a service or cancel a service stage, a full refund of fees paid relating to the cancelled stage will be made or an alternative service date provided.

Some services will also include a booking fee which is non-refundable in the event of cancellation of service by the client. This will be detailed on program confirmation documentation provided to the client, and noted on the invoice to the client for the program service. › Our Standards for responding to Complaints, Appeals and Opportunities for Improvement: TransTrain clients are encouraged to make comment on any areas of concern that they have or opportunities for improvement that they identify through their participation in services through TransTrain. This may include appealing assessment decisions or processes involved in services. The emphasis will always be on resolving any concerns to the satisfaction of the client. The TransTrain Complaints, Appeals and Opportunity for Improvement procedure is summarised below: 1. The client is encouraged to discuss the complaint, appeal or opportunity with the TransTrain staff member involved in the matter If the matter is not resolved, then 2. The client is requested to document the nature of the complaint, appeal or opportunity. The client will be encouraged to discuss the matter with a TransTrain staff member who has not previously been involved in the matter If the matter is not resolved, then 3. an appropriate legal or independently impartial conciliation organisation will be invited to provide advice and to support a resolution. Examples of such organisations may include a Registered Training Organisation who offers the same qualification services, an Industry Skills Council or Skills Tasmania or the Tasmanian Qualifications Authority. Note: The cost of responding to complaints, appeals or opportunities, after Stage 2 in the process above, shall be borne by TransTrain and the client as determined by the independent organisation. › Recognition of Current Skills and Prior Learning: TransTrain will recognise your prior learning and your current skills and experience through the assessment process for your qualification. Where the program is for licensing requirements, you may still be required to participate in the full program and the assessment, in accordance with specific industry legislation or regulatory requirements. › Recognition of AQF Qualifications TransTrain will recognise qualifications and statements of attainment issued by other RTOs. It is the client's responsibility to seek credit transfer into programs based on qualifications / statements of attainment already held. Support will be provided by TransTrain in this process. › Reciprocal Observation TransTrain requests reciprocal observation of the principles in this Code of Practice by program clients. Subject to our Grievances and Appeals procedure outlined above, we reserve the right to discontinue services should these principles be breached. We value the opportunity to be of support to you.
