Course Information
This course covers the skills and knowledge required to make decisions about the safety of occupants during a facility emergency and to give instructions on the priority order for responding to an emergency incident.
It includes leading the preparation of facility emergency response procedures; commanding, controlling and coordinating facility emergency response procedures and responses and concluding the facility emergency incident. Individuals who undertake this work may also act as the primary liaison with emergency services after their arrival.
The unit has been developed to cover a range of emergencies and workplaces as specified in Australian Standard (AS) 3745 and AS4083. For this unit, as covered by AS3745 and/or AS4083, occupants are people attending a facility on a permanent or temporary basis such as an employee, contractor, student or resident, but not a visitor or patient. In this context, a facility is a building, structure or workplace that is, or may be, occupied by people (occupants).
This course is ideal for members of an Emergency Control Organisation (ECO) who are chief wardens, deputy chief wardens and communications officers within their workplace. The knowledge and skills gained through successful completion of this course may be applied by employees across a variety of industries.
