This course is in line with the Services Industry Transformation Map strategic pillar of building a skilled and resilient workforce that is adaptable to changes and competent in workplace operations.
The legislated Environmental Sanitation Regime (ESR) has been implemented since mid-2021 at higher-risk premises with immuno-vulnerable occupants and/or high footfall such as preschools, schools, youth facilities and eldercare facilities, food centres and/or markets, and coffeeshops.
