Things you need to know

PLEASE NOTE
Social distancing is still a thing!

Requirements for all HRW Licencing:

You must be over the age of 18 years to apply for your HRW licence.

The HRW Licence is issued by Workplace Health & Safety Queensland and is Nationally recognised.

You must be able to speak, read & write english. You will need to complete some basic numeracy calculations and a have reasonable grasp of the written english language.

There will be a 2 hour, closed book, written Theory & Calculations exam as part of your assessment.

The person marking your assessment is a WHSQ authorised Assessor.

You do need to pass the theory and calculations before you can complete the Practical assessment.

You must have 3 types of ID (click here for full list). EG: Australian Drivers Licence or Passport, your Medicare Card and a Bank Card.

When you pass you will receive an Email from WHSQ. This is your temporary licence.

You will need to enter the Email information into the WHSQ website to apply for your actual HRW licence (plastic card) at a cost of around $94.00 (the card can take up to 4 weeks to arrive)

If you do not happen to pass we do not charge to redo your Assessment. The only additional cost is a $100 re-booking fee.
This fee also applies to cancelations & postponements.

We have courses running week days and weekends
