Frequently Asked Questions

How long is a rigging basic licence valid for?

A rigging basic (RB class) High Risk Work Licence is valid for 5 years from the date of issue. You will need to renew your licence with WorkSafe WA before it expires to continue performing rigging work.

Do I need a dogging licence before doing rigging basic?

Yes. You must hold a CPCCLDG3001 dogging (DG class) High Risk Work Licence before you can obtain your rigging basic licence. If you don't have your dogging ticket yet, STES also runs the dogging course.

Is the WorkSafe licence fee included in the course price?

Yes. The WorkSafe application fee and processing are included in the course price, so once you successfully complete your training and assessment, STES handles the paperwork for your High Risk Work Licence application.

What can I do with a rigging basic licence?

The rigging basic licence covers work such as erecting structural steel and pre-cast concrete members, erecting and dismantling hoists and mast climbing work platforms, safety nets and static lines, perimeter safety screens, and cantilevered crane loading platforms. It is the first step in the rigging pathway, followed by rigging intermediate and rigging advanced.

What do I need to bring on the day?

You should bring a valid photo ID (driver's licence or passport), your dogging High Risk Work Licence, appropriate clothing including long pants and closed-toe footwear, and any prescription glasses or medication you require. Lunch and refreshments are not provided so we recommend bringing your own.
