The Workplace Safety and Health (Risk Management) Regulations was introduced in 2006 to require employers, principals and self-employed persons to implement risk management in their workplaces.  This includes conducting risk assessments in relation to the safety and health risks of all their work activities.  Risk assessments are conducted to identify, evaluate, and control, if not eliminate, all hazards and foreseeable risks to workmen.    

This program provides learners with the skills and knowledge required to implement effective risk assessment (RA) in their workplaces. Learners will learn to adopt a systematic methodology in developing appropriate control initiatives with reference to the Code of Practice on Workplace Safety and Health Risk Management. Upon completion of this course, learners will understand the legal requirements, be able to identify hazards, evaluate risks and implement appropriate risk control measures.
