Common Safety Training Program - CSTP

25 December 2011

The Common Safety Training Program (CSTP) is a safety improvement initiative instigated by the Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration Association (APPEA), of which your organisation is currently a member.  The CSTP was developed to improve the level of safety behaviour demonstrated in the workplace.  Initially targeted at new entrants to the oil and gas industry, CSTP is also applicable to more experienced offshore/onshore production and drilling personnel as well as the rapidly emerging new areas such as coal seam gas industry. All new entrants must hold this qualification from 1 January 2012!
 

How can we assist you?

Red Alert Australia is now an approved provider of the CSTP.  We'd be happy to assist you with your CSTP needs.  Call Marielle on 1800 629 089 or (03) 9360 9011 or send her an email on guintom@red-alert.com.au for more information or to discuss your requirements.
