Course Set MSMWHS201 MSMPER300 & MSMWHS217 Gas Test and Permit Issuer

 

description

This course set is designed for new and experienced personnel required to undertake atmospheric gas testing; conduct a hazard analysis; and issue work permits in the resources and infrastructure industries. Many roles require this course set including safety, injury prevention and maintenance personnel, engineers, risk managers, mine managers, cable installers and transport personnel and safety observers/ stand-by personnel.

This course set also applies to individuals who are working alone or as part of a team to conduct a hazard analysis which may be required as part of a broader process such as identifying and applying for the permits required for work activity to be completed.

Additionally, this course set applies to individuals who require an understanding of the permit system; the limitations of each permit; as well as making decisions regarding the need for and correct use of each permit. This unit includes the issue of all permits. Please note, permits are called ‘clearances’ by some organisations.

Finally, this course set is for those individuals who may be required to carry out gas testing of an atmosphere prior to entering a specific area or workspace. These working environments may be hazardous, unpredictable, subject to time pressure, chaotic and expose responders to risk, on land or water, by day or night. It covers the skills and knowledge required to test the working atmosphere using electronic test apparatus, to find out if it is safe for the proposed work, interpret readings and take actions based on the interpretation.
