Thank you for your interest in the Western Downs Road Safety Driver Training Community Program! We’ve received your request and will contact you shortly.
For further enquiries, email training@harnessenergy.com.au or call 1300 327 723.
This community training program focuses on minimising the risks of driving on regional and rural roads. Training covers light vehicle preparation, operator maintenance, and handling challenging situations including traffic incidents and emergency driving scenarios.
The program also includes additional modules to build awareness around safe cargo handling, emergency first aid in rural settings, and understanding the impact of vehicle monitoring systems for those who drive work vehicles.
Safety is at the core of everything we do—for our employees, contractors, clients and the communities we operate in. This program demonstrates our commitment to realising potential: the potential of our people, our partners and our communities. This is the Harness way.
We are a national award-winning specialist in safety and technical training through our Registered Training Organisation. We help build meaningful, in-demand careers through our Apprenticeship and Trainee programs while ensuring medium and high-risk industries have the ongoing skilled workforce they need.
Our vision is to be a thought leader in safety training and a major player in labour supply across diverse mid-to-high risk environments and industries.
