Introduction
This teacher guide is for trainers and assessors of the unit BSBWHS201A - Contribute
to health and safety of self and others. This unit is a core unit in BSB31107: Certificate
III in Business Administration (Medical). This nationally recognised unit is part of the
Business Services Training Package.
Learner Guide
This teacher guide corresponds to the matching learner guide. The learner guide
introduces students to the medical environment. It provides relevant information,
practical scenarios, and industry information for the support of student learning. This
material is intended for students who have no formal background, skills or knowledge
in a medical environment. Each learner guide is a stand-alone guide and is suitable for
students who learn in a classroom setting with other students.
The corresponding learner guide for Contribute to health and safety of self and others
is set out in the following order:
o Table of contents
o Resources: Helpful Websites - these ensure students are able to source further
information in their own time
o Description of unit and performance criteria
o Employability skills
o Chapter outlines
o Chapters
o Self review questions and answers
o Revision sheets
o Glossary
o Assessment criteria
In the learner guide, there are four chapters. The chapters do not necessarily match an
element of the unit of competency. This is due to the change from BSBOHS201A to the
current version of WHS. For example, in BSBWHS201A: Contribute to health and
safety of self and others there are three units of competency. However there are four
chapters, the first three are titled as per the matching element, and the forth chapter

is designated to discussing emergency incidents. Therefore, in line with the wording of
the element, Chapter 1 is called Work Safely.
The subheadings relate to the performance criteria for each element, and have the
performance criteria number displayed in brackets next to the sub heading. For
example: Follow established safety procedures (1.1) directly refers to performance
criteria 1.1: Follow established safety procedures when conducting work. These
performance criteria have their titles condensed so they are easier for students to
understand.
Each performance criteria has activities which can be undertaken. They are not
compulsory, and may be amended as required. All activities are continuously
numbered and use the following picture.
Activity 1
At the end of each chapter there are self review questions. Students can perform
these true and false questions in their own time, and check their results against the
answers provided. In the final section of the learner guide there are revision sheets,
which are a combination of short answer questions, fill in the gaps, choose the correct
answer, etc. These do not have answers provided, so students can do them in class as
part of their formal review. After the revision sheets, there is a glossary with the
descriptions of relevant terms.
The final section of the learner guide contains the assessment criteria. Here students
can record which activities match the relevant performance criteria, and tick them off
once completed. Required skills and knowledge and critical aspects for assessment and
evidence are then displayed for student and/or teacher use, if required.
The final assessment is provided as a holistic assessment, therefore it contains all
performance criteria in one assessment. It pulls together the entire students learning
from the matching learner guide. The final assessment is not provided as part of the
learner guide. However, the final assessment and answers are part of this teacher
guide.
