3. Electrical Workers Practicing License Renewals 2005

The Registrar has conducted a review of the Electrical Workers Register and has identified over 12,000 Electrical Workers who will have their periodic safety training expire this year.

In order to be eligible for the issue of a practicing license, all training i.e. Testing, Safe Working Practices, CPR and Basic First Aid must be current at the time of renewal.

Due to the large number of Electrical Workers in this situation the Registrar will be sending an email or paper reminder to affected clients. This will give people the opportunity to make the necessary arrangements to receive tuition before the start of the renewal process in May.

One of the most common reasons for rejecting Electrical Workers Practicing License Renewals is due to expired training.

This can often be frustrating for Electrical Workers as they need to complete this before resubmitting their application.

A list of training providers is available from our website at www.ewrb.govt.nz. To access, click on training, then click on 'list of safety training providers'.
