The obligation
The code treats training as an administrative control and says only persons who have received training and instruction should carry out the work.
Training, like PPE, is low on the list of control priorities and should only be used when risk cannot be minimised by other means. Where training is used, identify who and what training is needed, how to deliver and evaluate it, and keep records of all training. PCBUs should monitor systems of work and provide refresher training, including on the use of PPE and weapons. Workers who may be exposed to armed robbery at work are a target group for training.
