Safety is Territory Generation’s highest priority. We are committed to ensuring the health and safety of everyone who enters and works on our sites. Employees and contractors must be appropriately trained and authorised to safely access and work on Territory Generation plant and equipment under our Permit to Work (PTW) system. The PTW system applies to all Territory Generation sites with the exception of Ron Goodin Power Station (Alice Springs). If you are conducting work at Ron Goodin Power Station, please visit our Access to Apparatus Rules page.
You will only be authorised to work for Territory Generation if you can demonstrate you have met all prerequisites (relevant training, licences, skills and experience etc.) required for the work / duties you are to do. This information will be recorded in our training management system as verification that prerequisites have been met. Please note that contractors are responsible for ensuring the currency of their competencies.
