Build the skills needed to protect employees and create safer workplaces with this practical Workplace Preparedness and Risk Control Officer programme. Designed for OHS practitioners, compliance officers, supervisors, trainers, shop stewards, and workplace safety personnel, this course equips learners to manage workplace preparedness and risk control for communicable and occupational diseases.
Learners will gain a solid understanding of the OHS legal framework, hazard identification, workplace risk assessment, prevention and control measures, and return-to-work preparedness. The programme focuses on helping learners identify workplace hazards, apply legal requirements, and implement effective exposure control interventions that support both employee health and organisational compliance.
A strong practical component prepares learners to use workplace health risk assessment tools, prepare employees and workplaces for disease prevention, implement screening, referral and reporting procedures, and manage isolation and containment steps in line with approved protocols. The course also develops the ability to support health, well-being, and disease prevention across a variety of workplace settings.
Ideal for professionals across all sectors, this programme prepares graduates to strengthen workplace readiness, improve health and safety practices, and contribute meaningfully to safer, healthier, and more resilient working environments.
