Introduction

The Safe Use of Machinery for Technology Teaching is an accredited course. Technology students and teachers are likely to use a range of equipment and machines that present a higher risk than other areas of the curriculum.

The School Principal is responsible for ensuring that the relevant safety precautions for operating machinery in the school are implemented. Teachers must have also had the obligatory training and have attained the required levels of competency in machinery and plant.

This course is confined to instructions in the safe use of operating machinery in a technology teaching environment in schools.
