BSB60619 is the nationally recognised Advanced Diploma behind occupational health and safety adviser work. It has been the current version on the national register since 2019, when it replaced BSB60615. About 950 occupational health and safety adviser jobs were advertised in June 2026, down 2.5% on a year earlier.
The independent signals behind this qualification are positive. Specifically: its occupations are rated in shortage in parts of the country and employment in its occupations is projected to grow through 2035. These are official statistics, not a promise about any individual's result.
Employer demand for these roles is holding steady. Across Occupational Health And Safety Adviser, about 950 jobs were advertised online in June 2026 (down 2.5% on a year earlier). Roughly 11,277 openings were advertised over the last 12 months, while 215 people enrolled in the qualification nationally in 2024. Enrolment counts people in training, not completions, so the two figures describe the pipeline and the market, not a job guarantee.
The official shortage list rates some of these occupations as in shortage in parts of the country. In the 2025 Occupation Shortage List assessment, Environmental Health Officer is rated in shortage in regional areas; Occupational Health and Safety Adviser is rated not in shortage.
Employment in these occupations is projected to keep growing strongly. Government projections put them at 40,000 workers in May 2025, 44,600 by May 2030 (up 11.3%) and 47,900 by May 2035 (up 19.8%).
Enrolments in this qualification are steady. National enrolments moved from 205 in 2023, to 215 in 2024 (up 4.9%).
The register and the national framework set some of this. Providers set the rest.
