Frequently Asked Questions

How long is a telehandler ticket valid for?

Your RIIHAN309F Statement of Attainment does not have a legislated expiry date, however most employers and mine sites in Western Australia require refresher training every 2–3 years to ensure your skills and knowledge remain current. Always check your employer's specific site requirements before commencing work.

Do I need a High Risk Work Licence to operate a telehandler?

It depends on the configuration. RIIHAN309F covers standard telehandler operations with attachments such as forks and jibs. If the telehandler is fitted with a crane jib and operated as a non-slewing crane over 3 tonnes capacity, a CN class High Risk Work Licence may be required, and a WP licence may apply for elevating work platform attachments 11 metres or more.

What do I need to bring on the day?

You should bring a valid photo ID (driver's licence or passport), 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.
