The Standard 11 (S11) Mining Induction (correctly known as the Generic OHS Induction from Appendix 3 in the Qld Department of Natural Resources and Mines ‘Recognised Standard 11 – Training in Coal Mines ) is a required course for new starters to work on a mine in Queensland. NOTE: If you intend to work on a BMA Coal Mine in Queensland you should check first with site about their mining induction requirements prior to enrolling into this course.
OHSA are one of the largest and most regular providers of this course. This course exceeds the requirements of most other interstate mining induction requirements (however you should always check first with the mine about any specific requirements they may have).
This course covers both coal and metalliferous mines. The Standard 11 Mine Safety Induction (Surface) course is delivered face-to-face over 2 days, whereby upon successful completion of the written and practical assessments during the course, you will receive a Statement of Completion and a plastic Standard 11 Induction photo ID card enabling you to commence work on the mine site.
In addition to the training component of the mine induction, students will be required to complete a mine on-site verification workbook within 6 months of the training (check with the employer/mine as some only give 3 months) and return it to us with 3 tags and 3 personal risk assessments. On successful completion of the on-site verification workbook, students will be issued with a Statement of Attainment for the relevant units of competency, in addition to their full ID card which, at this stage, lasts for 5 years.
This 2-day course is run regularly in-house and is open to the public and can be undertaken in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and the Sunshine Coast during weekdays and weekends. We also run regional and interstate locations. See our training calendar to find the next course in your location.
Those wishing to work underground will need to do the elective 1 Day Standard 11 Underground course which OHSA usually offers every week after the Standard 11 Surface Induction.
Queensland has 41 open cut and 13 underground coal mines. Saleable coal mined in 2014-2015 increased from 243.6MT from 228.9MT in the previous year. According to the Qld Department of Natural Resources there are currently 21 Advanced Export Coal Projects.

On successful completion of the training component, students will be issued with a Statement of Completion, along with a mine induction Initial ID card.
In addition to the training component of the mine induction, students will be required to complete a mine on-site verification workbook within 6 months of the training (check with the employer/mine as some only give 3 months) and return it to us with 3 tags and 3 personal risk assessments.
