A White Card (also known as a General Construction Induction Card) is a mandatory work card required in Australia to order to work on a construction site. It is gained by completing a face-to-face or online government mandated course through a registered training organisation. The unit of competency required is CPCCOHS1001A – Work Safely In The Construction Industry. People who need a White Card include those not directly involved in building, such as supervisors, site managers, and people who routinely enter construction sites. White Cards become void if no construction work is carried out in two consecutive years or more.This White Card Course will replace a range of state systems operating different coloured cards (Blue, Green, Red) and regulatory bodies. Every State in Australia now operate with the Nationally Recognized White Card. The White Card Online can be can be issued in Western Australia and Queensland. However this White Card is mutually recognized and accepted in all states of Australia.
