Show outline for course: Site Operator (SO) Training Course for Private Fuel OutletsThis course is intended for farmers, contractors, foresters, miners, and other persons who operate a private fuel dispensing outlet.
There is a legal requirement under TSSA's Liquid Fuels Handling Code for every person handling/dispensing fuel at a private fuel outlet or as a driver of a highway tank or mobile refuelling tank, to be trained in the use of all equipment and trained to take action in the event of a spill or leak of product, or any emergency condition. The Site Operator Training Course for Private Fuel Outlets fulfills this requirement, and is the theoretical training leading to your Certification by TSSA as a Site Operator. There is a short test at the end of each chapter.
This course does not include minor maintenance training such as changing fuel hoses or nozzles. For this training please see the Petroleum Mechanic Helper course.
