Reassessment

If you do not pass your High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) assessment, you may be eligible to complete a reassessment. This ensures you remain competent and meet WorkSafe WA licensing requirements.

Eligibility
Within 60 days of your first assessment:

• You can re-sit only the part(s) you didn’t pass.

• For theory (knowledge/calculations) – you only redo the questions you got wrong.

• For practical (performance) – you only redo the tasks you were not yet competent in.

After 60 days: Your Notice of Assessment (NOA) will have expired. Once expired, it cannot be altered or reissued. You must complete a full reassessment (the entire theory and/or practical assessment, as required) at the full course fee.

• Your NOA is valid for 60 days only.

• Any reassessment fees will be discussed with you before booking, so you know what to expect.

• Reassessments are scheduled on set assessment-only days, usually:

• Day 2 of a 2-day course

• Days 3 & 4 of a 4-day course

• Your reassessment may be conducted by a different accredited assessor than your original assessment.

You must bring

• Your expired NOA or proof of previous training
• Valid photo ID
• Any feedback or results from your previous assessment (if available)

Why is this required?

WorkSafe WA requires that reassessments for HRWL classes are completed within 60 days of your initial assessment. This is outlined in the WorkSafe Accredited Assessor Conditions (Conditions 32–34) and supported by Regulation 134(1) of the Work Health and Safety (General) Regulations 2022, which states that assessments conducted outside the 60-day period cannot result in a WA High Risk Work Licence.

Reassessments include both theory and practical components and must be completed on designated assessment-only days, typically:

• Day 2 of a 2-day course

• Days 3 and 4 of a 4-day course

Be advised that your assessor for the reassessment may be different to your original assessor. Please contact our team to confirm reassessment dates for your specific course.

The following timelines apply from the date of issue on your Notice of Assessment (NOA):

Day 0-60

Your paperwork must be submitted to WorkSafe within 60 days of the NOA issue date.

Day 61-120

If your NOA has expired but is within 120 days from the issue date, you are eligible to complete a reassessment. You will be required to:

• Pay 50% of the course fee, and

Day 121+

If your NOA has expired more than 120 days since the issue date, you will be required to:

• Pay the full course fee (100%), and
