A national standard for licensing persons performing high risk work has been developed to facilitate the operation of a nationally uniform; competency based licensing system for persons performing certain types of high risk work. It replaces the National Occupational health and Safety Certification Standard for Users and Operators of industrial Equipment (NOHSC:1006(2001) originally declared in 1992, which was adopted in OHS regulations through Australia. In July 2004 a review was commenced and the new national standard has been developed in response to the findings of that review.
