Employers and principal contractors are legally required to provide training and instruction in a range of areas before they commence work. WorkPro has just made this task more efficient, enabling individuals to complete inductions right here, to improve their readiness for work - whether it’s a new job, or a new position..
The average module takes about 30 minutes to complete and then candidates complete an on-line assessment to confirm their understanding of the module content.
Some modules are dedicated to a particular topic whilst others have been condensed and combined for those that have less time or lower risk.
We leave the decision as to which modules to get candidates and employee’s to complete to employers and others in control of workplaces. The decision of which modules the individual completes should be based on compliance obligations, risk management principles and operational considerations, amongst other things. At WorkPro we provide you with the tools and you make the decision on how and when to use them!
The assessment results are stored in the individual’s work profile for easy reference by an employer or any other party that is required to confirm the delivery of training and instruction.
WorkPro inductions are engaging, assisted by OSHI, WorkPro’s resident training host. It is her passion to deliver training that is relevant and appealing - we hope you like her style.
