  
About the BoardThe Electrical Workers Registration Board is a statutory body established in 1992. Members are appointed by, and responsible to, the Minister of Energy. There are seven members at any one time. Five are registered or entitled to be registered under the Electricity Act and two are not registered or entitled to be registered. The Board's main functions are set out in section 149 of the Electricity Act 1992. Its primary focus is to register electrical workers and ensure the ongoing competency of those workers, thereby ensuring the public's safety. In addition to its occupational licensing function, the Board audits electrical workers, holds hearings into complaints and undertakes the promotion of electrical safety and competency. Income is entirely derived from electrical worker fees and charges.
