BACKGROUND
ACLCA Victoria will hold a 2-Day Occupational Health and Safety Awareness Training course specifically targeted to working on contaminated land projects and providing attendees with relevant examples and case studies relating to working in this industry. For personnel new to this industry, it will provide an awareness of the key hazards associated with their routine work. For personnel who already have some experience within the industry but have not had any formal training, it will provide exposure to best practice controls associated with their work.
