This textbook addresses the BSB41419 Certificate IV in Work Health and Safety qualification. This qualification applies to individuals working in a work health and safety (WHS) role who provide a broad range of technical knowledge and skills and have some limited responsibility for the output of others. The qualification applies to those working as supervisors, WHS personnel, and workers in other WHS-related roles who manage risks effectively, apply relevant WHS laws, and contribute to WHS within the workplace in known or changing contexts with established parameters.

It is perfect for

• people moving from trade/supervisory roles into safety
• current HSRs who want formal recognition and deeper knowledge
