Furthermore, contractors and subcontractors are made aware of the rules and regulations governing their access to the site and how they must work on the site. In this way, their safety and the safety of persons around them while they work are provided for.

This customised e-learning module allows the user's induction training to be consolidated into a quick and easy format. allowing the process to be conducted and recorded more efficiently. This provides evidence to an inspector that proof of contractor induction is being conducted and that the employer is complying with health and safety legislation.
