WHS Induction for Student FORM

The CWTS WHS Induction for Students is a fully editable, rebrand-ready form aligned to the Standards for RTOs 2025. Designed for RTO administrators, trainers, and coordinators responsible for inducting new students into the training environment, it provides a structured and documented process for ensuring every student is informed of your RTO's Work Health and Safety requirements and their own WHS obligations before training delivery begins.
 
Student WHS induction is not an optional courtesy. Your RTO has a duty of care to every student who enters its training environments, and that duty begins at the point of induction. Students who are not informed of emergency procedures, hazard reporting processes, prohibited substances policies, and their own responsibilities in maintaining a safe training environment represent a risk to themselves and others. A documented induction process that captures student acknowledgement of these requirements gives your RTO a defensible position if a WHS incident occurs and demonstrates to ASQA that your safety management practices extend to the people most directly affected by them.
 
This form provides a consistent, auditable process for student WHS induction across all training environments your RTO uses. It aligns to clause 1.8 of the Standards for RTOs 2025 and was developed in conjunction with the Work Health and Safety Policy Procedure, Environmental Management Policy Procedure, and Smoking, Drugs and Alcohol Policy Procedure. It includes the following:
 
Key WHS obligations and responsibilities for students in plain language
Emergency procedures and evacuation information acknowledgement
Hazard and incident reporting process confirmation
Smoking, drugs, and alcohol policy acknowledgement
Student signature and date fields for audit trail purposes
