Blue Card Training
Program Overview
What is a Blue Card?
The Transport & Logistics industry BlueCard is a minimum entry level, work health and safety (WHS) training course designed to promote awareness and understanding of basic safety needs and procedures.
It is designed to develop and maintain consistent safety standards for the transport and logistics industry and is endorsed by industry representatives and stakeholders who aim to develop best practice.
Being a truck driver/courier driver in Australia is one of the most dangerous occupations. Working within the Warehousing/Logistics industry also requires knowledge and skills to ensure workplace health and safety standards are able to be achieved.
To get a Blue Card, you need to undertake a BlueCard training course in the latest transport and logistics industry WHS competency which is currently TLIF0025 Follow work health and safety procedures.
Blue Cards are valid for five (5) years from the month of issue.
