Issue Work Permits

Students who are deemed competent will receive a Statement of Attainment recognised under the Australian Qualifications Framework. This certification is nationally recognised. The Statement is issued by Pinnacle Safety and Training (RTO 40496).

National units of competency

• MSMPER300 Issue work permit
• MSMWHS201 Conduct hazard analysis

Assessment for this course includes both theory and practical components. All assessment tasks and trainer feedback is submitted through our online learning management system. 

The theory component focuses on legislative requirements and the key principles of permit-to-work systems. 

The practical assessment is completed through interactive, scenario-based activities. Participants will review sample permit applications, assess compliance with permit conditions, and demonstrate their understanding of the correct procedures for finalising and closing permits.
