BSB41407 Certificate IV in Occupational Health and Safety

To implement effective occupational health and safety management, managers, supervising personnel and employees require a range of OHS system-focused competencies based on practices, procedures and systems that are similar in all workplaces.

OHS ‘system-focused’ units of competency need to address the range of skills and knowledge required within every workplace to:

  • establish, implement and monitor an OHS system;
  • address OHS legislation, regulations and codes of practice;
  • fulfil the duty of care for those in the workplace;
  • identify hazards, and assess and control risks; and
  • contribute to participative and consultative procedures for the management of OHS.
