OVERVIEW

About this course.

This course explains environmental awareness for people working in and around construction in Australia. It sets out what the environment is and why it matters on a building site, the main ways construction affects the environment, how environmental protection is organised in Australian law across the Commonwealth, states and territories, and the practical, everyday measures that prevent pollution, control dust and noise, manage waste through the waste hierarchy, and use energy, water and materials responsibly. It closes with your own responsibilities and what to do if something goes wrong.

The course is written for construction workers of all trades and levels — labourers, apprentices, tradespeople, plant operators, leading hands and supervisors — as well as anyone new to the industry who needs a solid, jurisdiction-aware introduction to environmental awareness on site. No prior environmental knowledge is assumed.
