The Online Health & Safety Representative Training Course Will:
- Train staff in the legally prescribed unit standard.
- Include a coach for 12 months to help the rep put the lessons into practice.
Before you spend another dollar on going to a health and safety representative course…
Ask yourself this:
Do you really think a 2-day face-to-face training course will equip your staff so they know exactly what to do when they get back to work?
If you can’t answer with a resounding “YES”, then let’s fix that right now.
So Who Am I?
I’ve also tutored hundreds of students in New Zealand health and safety courses.
And I’ve taken all of my experience and build Safety Hub so I can deliver targeted training and coaching for your staff.
WHO I AM
Why This Delivers You More Than A Course
There are so many people who have done a H&S course and then don’t know what to do.
The course may be great, but it’s hard putting the theory into practice when people return to their workplace.
Or worse, they think they know what to do, and start doing health and safety stuff that is just ‘box-ticking’.
This is no time to be experimenting. Focusing on the wrong action can distract you from doing the right-stuff – the actions that will stop people from getting hurt.
Once you have signed up for the course, you will get instant access to the online health and safety course which you can complete around your own work schedule.
Other training providers require your staff to attend a 2-day face-to-face training regime at a set place and time.
There is definitely something to be said about getting people together for 2-days to share experiences.
But as soon as the training is finished, people go back to work and will never share and learn from each other again. The training fades into a haze of information.
With the Safety Hub online training, the rep can complete the course in just a few days. And with the build in online quiz, they will be able to complete the assessment and get their result instantly. If they get the questions wrong, they can keep trying until they prove they understand the training.
But here is the real step-change. They get 1 year access to the community and get ongoing feedback.
They also get access to me, where I will personally coach them in a private thread that only we will see.
The H&S Rep Course Is Presented Inside The Private Safety Hub Community.
Each Section Of The Course Aligns To The Legally Prescribed Unit Standard (US 29315).
1
Worksafe and PCBU Duties.
2
Risk Assessment and Communication.
3
Being a H&S Rep.
4
Stopping Unsafe Work.
5
Issuing a PIN (Provisional Improvement Notice).
All this for $399+GST
There is no need to pay for accommodation and travel to get to a 2-day face-to-face course.
And as we have learned from COVID-19, people enjoy and can learn and work remotely.
If you didn’t have a coach supporting your H&S rep, how much would
it cost if they got it wrong?
Is Safety Hub Qualified To Deliver?
You already know that it is a legal requirement to have a health and safety representative complete a certified H&S representative course.
Completing initial training means achieving New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) unit standards 29315: Describe the role and functions of the Health and Safety
Representative in a New Zealand workplace.
Only training that leads to the achievement of NZQA unit standard 29315 meets the requirements for initial training. You can read all the legal requirements when you google ‘Health and Safety at Work (Worker Engagement, Participation, and Representation) Regulations 2016’ and read the training section.
But, to deliver this unit standard, a company also needs to be an NZQA approved training provider. Safety Hub is an approved provider and is registered on the NZQA Website(link). This is to protect because the company is audited and reviewed by the government- ensuring you get the best results.
When the course is completed, we will notify the NZQA and unit standard 29315 will be recorded against the student’s record of learning.
They will also receive a certificate confirming they are a Certified H&S Representative.
As the coach, I am accredited by the New Zealand Institute of Safety Managers. Certification requires a member to provide proof of education, experience and competency as well as maintaining ongoing learning.
This means as a student, you will get the required legal training and expert coaching support – for 12 months.
The reason I became a health and safety representative was to have a voice firstly for myself and secondly for my colleagues. Having a say in how SOPs are created and policy around the everyday tasks that we complete is essential to a healthy workplace relationship with management and the wider company.
I was able to do the online course in my own time and even during work time. There were no restrictions in terms of having to get time off work.
The structure of the course read well and the information made sense and flowed nicely into the next section. I have done other courses that were the complete opposite and it was a struggle to retain any information.
If you a looking for an online course for H&S representation at work check this course out. I would highly recommend this course because of the simplicity and knowledge you gain from it and you choose when to do it.

It was great to be able to chip away at it one section a night rather than take out a full day or two of my busy schedule.
I thought I had a pretty good understanding of the new legislation but I learnt a lot and the extra resources were super useful.
When advising clients around h&s I strongly recommend h&s reps take this course to fully understand the importance of the role and their responsibilities. The ongoing availability and support of Tony for people tasked with this role means they can take it on with confidence.

Stick with the way you are doing things at the moment and hope everything is covered off (which you will only find out when things go wrong).
