About this course

Welcome to the Smart Ticketing Safety Induction: Regional Bus module.  

This module describes likely hazards that will be encountered when working on bus fleets, and during reasonable times of rest and relaxation, in regional areas of Queensland.

It will also address unfamiliar hazards you may encounter during your time in the region, like abnormal weather conditions, site conditions, venomous animals and remote living.

This training is supplementary to the Smart Ticketing Safety Induction module and for those working on the installation team in regional Queensland.

At the end of this module there is an assessment and the pass mark is 100%.
