If your HRW licence has not been renewed within 12 months of expiry, what must you do?

• A. Apply for replacement licence.
• B. Pay a late renewal fee.
• C. Retrain and sit an assessment with a Registered Training Organisation.
• D. Nothing – you can renew anytime.

Answer: (C)

When a High Risk Work licence has expired, you must stay current with safety standards. If the licence hasn’t been renewed within 12 months of expiry, the required path is to retrain and be reassessed by a Registered Training Organisation before the licence can be reissued. This ensures your skills and knowledge are up to date with current procedures and safety rules. Options like paying a late renewal fee or applying for a replacement don’t apply after a year, and taking no action would leave you without a valid licence. By enrolling with an RTO, completing the appropriate theory and practical assessments, you demonstrate your competency and have the licence reissued.
