About the Course
WorkSafe Connect’s ‘G2’ course is a 1-day trainer-supported program that is delivered either face-to-face or online (via Zoom in an electronic classroom).
It is an interactive and activity-based program, using real-world scenarios, that provides students practical knowledge and skills relating to carry out the risk management process.
As determined by the Mining Safety and Health Advisory Committees (click here), the G2 unit of competency is a statutory requirement for certain high-level occupational categories in coal and metalliferous miming (e.g. Open Cut Examiners). It is not a mandatory requirement for supervisors, however some mining companies have made an organisational policy decision that requires their site-based supervisors to hold the G2 competency (along with Mining Supervisor S123 / G189 accreditation).
There are no course entry requirements, no pre-course study and no-post course evidence to provide.
We have incorporated G2 into the first day of our 2-day S123 / G189 program – it is module 1 (Risk Management Process) of the 3-module program. Therefore, students who successfully complete the ‘Risk Management Process’ module will be issued a Statement of Attainment for the following units of competency:
- RIIRIS402E Carry out the risk management process (G2)
- RIIRIS301E – Apply Risk Management Processes (S1 / G1)
Given the program design, a G2 student who also requires the Site Supervisor / Site Safety Health Representative accreditation (S123 / G189) can complete one additional day (Modules 2 & 3) to be issued with 4 units of competency (click here for further information).
WorkSafe Connect has been delivering mining safety programs for over 15 years and is one of Queensland’s leading suppliers of the Site Supervisor programs. We look forward to supporting our students to achieve their accreditation.
