Course Overview

This mandatory safety induction, known as the White Card, equips you with the essential knowledge to enter any Australian construction site legally.

You’ll learn how to spot common hazards, understand safety responsibilities, fit protective gear correctly, and respond to incidents—all while staying compliant with workplace health and safety laws. It’s the first step toward working safely and confidently in construction.

What you’ll learn

• Your workplace health and safety duties—and who’s responsible for what in the chain of safety
• How to identify hazards, assess risks, and use effective controls to prevent incidents
• How to recognize, select, and correctly use personal protective equipment (PPE)
• Safety communication essentials—reporting hazards, reading signage, and working with safety personnel
• Emergency procedures—what to do in case of fire, injury, or other urgent situations

Who it’s for

Anyone aiming to work on construction sites—regardless of trade or role—must complete this course first. It’s ideal for first-time workers, apprentices, labourers, supervisors, and professionals like security staff who routinely need site access.

You’ll come away with

• A Statement of Attainment for CPCWHS1001 (Prepare to Work Safely in the Construction Industry)
• Your national White Card, legally required to work on Australian construction sites (varies by state for timing and issuance)

Job outcomes

This accreditation opens the door to a range of entry-level roles, such as:

• Construction Labourer
• Apprentice or Trades Assistant
