* Confirmation of resources and materials - RTOs must undertake a series of “pre-assessment” activities to ensure that Candidates undertaking and Assessors conducting a HRWL Assessment are safe from risk and harm and that all tasks in the NAI can be completed as per assessment requirements.
The RTO is responsible for ensuring and confirming that all resources required to conduct a HRWL Assessment are readily available, safe for use and compliant before the assessment begins. This responsibility cannot be delegated to the Assessor.
Compliance may be checked by SafeWork NSW via audit and/or verification activities.
Compliance action may include:
Educative Advice
Corrective Action
Directed Engagement
Suspension
Cancellation.
An RTO can ensure compliance by taking the actions detailed in the table below. The table outlines the SafeWork NSW expectations of RTOs for every HRWL Assessment, to meet the minimum plant and equipment requirements. (The Fact Sheet from SafeWork NSW at the bottom of this procedure outlines the full details.)

HRW RTO Condition
...
SafeWork NSW expectation of compliant action
...
Condition 51
Prior to each HRWL Assessment, the RTO must confirm that the resources required to conduct the Assessment in the relevant HRWL class:
a. are readily available and safe for use, including, but not limited to, the site/venue, plant, equipment, and/or materials; and
b. are compliant and meet the full requirements to conduct the HRWL Assessment as prescribed for the relevant HRWL class in the Guide for Assessors and/ or the NAI
...
The RTO must carry out appropriate due diligence before every assessment.
This means having a process that ensures an RTO staff member consistently checks everything is available for a safe, compliant, and full licence assessment before every assessment.
Good practice would be to use a checklist so the required items can be marked off
If the RTO cannot confirm all required items for the assessment, the RTO must cancel the HRWL Assessment as it is unable to meet the requirements of Conditions 51 and 52.
...
Condition 52
Prior to each HRWL Assessment, the RTO must provide timely written notification to the Assessor including, but not limited to:
f. suitable evidence that the resources required to conduct the HRWL Assessment (see Conditions 51(a) and 51(b) above) have been determined as available, safe for use and compliant.
...
The RTO must have a process for providing the necessary written information to an Assessor before the assessment.
...
This could occur via email, OLE notification or hard copy documents and must include either:
A written declaration by the RTO to the Assessor that confirms the resources have been checked and are readily available, safe for use, compliant and meet the full requirements OR
A copy of the checklist(s) used to confirm the resources have been checked and are readily available, safe for use, compliant and meet the full requirements.
