TAPS prides itself on exceeding Industry Standards. We believe that educating Apprentices will give them the additional skills, confidence and access to a more dynamic apprenticeship. The additional skills gives Hosts more confidence knowing that they have employed an Apprentice with extra qualifications, skills and experience.
TAPS also offers the additional training.
Driver Safety Program (Short Course)
We provide all Apprentices with a “Drive To Live” course, which teaches Apprentices the necessary road skills to develop their driving skills and reduce the risk of workplace injury.
Plant and Equipment (Short Course)
We also offer Apprentices a one-day Plant and Equipment Handling course allowing apprentices to further their knowledge and contribute safely to their nominated workplace.
The Manual Handling courses are designed specifically for TAPS and are delivered by a qualified physiotherapist.
Additional safety equipment provided
Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) will be provided at the initial induction and extra equipment will be available onsite from the TAPS Field Officers as required.
Comprehensive Induction
We provide a full-day Induction to all new Apprentices covering all Occupational Health & Safety requirements. All costs are covered by TAPS.
All Hosts and Apprentices are privy to an Occupational Health & Safety manual outlining the expected workplace policies and procedures. TAPS have a dedicated OHS Officer to oversee safety policies, procedures and injury management.
