They carry out work under minimal supervision within industry guidelines and may have responsibility for highly valuable animals.No occupational licensing or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.Work health and safety and animal welfare legislation relevant to interacting with horses applies to workers in this industry. Requirements vary between industry sectors and state/territory jurisdictions.
