Our CPCWHS1001 learning resources include over 60 multi-media video lessons, Codes of Practice, SMS and documents for training this unit. Also included are assessment activities, scenarios, and case studies, making it perfect for RTOs delivering this unit for the General Construction Induction White Card.
The resources are suitable for use for delivery in all jurisdictions, including Western Australia, Victoria, NSW, South Australia, ACT, Tasmania, NT and Queensland, and include both WHS and OHS legislation

The assessments include a range of methods including practical demonstration, oral and written reporting, as required by the unit of competency, and will work on most Learning Management Systems including Cloud Assess, Cloudemy, Moodle and Axcelerate.
This unit of competency specifies the mandatory work health and safety training required prior to undertaking construction work. The unit requires the person to demonstrate personal awareness and knowledge of health and safety legislative requirements in order to work safely and prevent injury or harm to self and others. It covers identifying and orally reporting common construction hazards, understanding basic risk control measures, and identifying procedures for responding to potential incidents and emergencies. It also covers correctly selecting and fitting common personal protective equipment (PPE) used for construction work.
This unit meets the general construction induction training requirements of:
- Part 1.1 Definitions and Part 6.5 of the Model Work Health and Safety Regulations;
- Division 11 of Part 3 of the Occupational Safety and Health Regulations 1996 for Western Australia; and
- Division 3 of Part 5.1 of the Occupational Health and Safety Regulations 2007 for Victoria.
It is expected that site-specific induction training will be conducted prior to conducting construction work.
Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit. Relevant work health and safety state and territory regulatory authorities should be consulted to confirm jurisdictional requirements.
The assessment of performance evidence must be conducted by direct observation of the learner by an assessor, either by an assessor observing the learner physically and/or by an assessor observing the learner via audio and visual media in real time.
