White Card Course (WA)

There are several websites offering cheap non-accredited White Card courses in WA which will issue you a “Statement of Completion”. However, a “Statement of Completion” is not the same as a “Statement of Attainment”.

You must have a nationally accredited CPCWHS1001 – Prepare to work safely in the construction industry (or equivalent) Statement of Attainment from a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) in order to be able to work.

White Card training is mandatory construction induction training for anyone working on a construction site in Western Australia. In Western Australia it is against the law to carry out construction work without having first completed Construction Induction Training, which is demonstrated by providing what is known as a White Card upon entry to a construction site.

CPCWHS10001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry, is the nationally recognised unit required to both obtain a White Card.

This unit of competency specifies the mandatory work health and safety training required prior to undertaking construction work. The unit requires the person to demonstrate personal awareness and knowledge of health and safety legislative requirements in order to work safely and prevent injury or harm to self and others. It covers identifying and orally reporting common construction hazards, understanding basic risk control measures, and identifying procedures for responding to potential incidents and emergencies. It also covers correctly selecting and fitting common personal protective equipment (PPE) used for construction work.

Examples of jobs or activities that require an White Card certificate are:

• Casual, part-time or labour-hire persons performing construction work
• Owners carrying out construction work
• Installation of joinery, pre-cast concrete panels, windows
• Delivery drivers dropping off materials inside the construction zone
• Engineers and surveyors who undertake preparatory site work
• Cleaning and maintenance of structures under construction
• Work experience students undertaking construction work
• Traffic control for on-site construction work
• Finishing and fit-out work such as painting, tiling, carpet laying, floor sanding
• Landscaping
