Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to manage workplace risk management system and practices for a gas facility critical incident specific project.

It includes managing the development of a risk management system using risk management principles by mitigating risks in the work environment for a specific project and reviewing critical incident contingency plan in a gas facility.

This unit covers the managing of risk management systems and practices in the workplace. This unit refers to risk management principles, risk management plans, appropriate persons, authorisation, risks, hazards, control measures, relevant documentation, legislative requirements, emergency response exercises, emergency appliances, contingency plans and safety devices.

This unit applies to any safe work site where gas industry operations occur. It could also apply, where applicable to other workplaces in the electricity supply industry (transmission and distribution and generation), the electrotechnology industry and the water industry, work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) and duty of care requirements being met for the workplace.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
