Construction Induction Certificate deadline extended
Tuesday, 25 April, 2006
"˜Green cards' can now be used until 1st September 2006 as proof of induction training in the building industry.
WorkCover NSW is extending the period to enable green card holders who missed the 29 March 2006 conversion deadline to continue working.
Employers will be able to accept the green card or a pre 29 March 2004 training certificate as proof of construction induction training up until 1 September 2006.
"Although a large number of cardholders have already converted their old "˜green cards' to new WorkCover cards, some cardholders missed the two-year conversion period, which ended on 29th March 2006," said WorkCover Chief Executive Officer, Jon Blackwell.
"Green card holders who missed the 29 March 2006 conversion deadline will still be required to undertake re-training."
