Work at height remains one of the biggest causes of fatalities and major injuries, so choosing the right equipment for the job is crucial.
Identifying the correct piece of equipment and user training go hand-in-hand, so undertaking a relevant training course is an imperative part of the safety process.
Learning from a fully qualified trainer is essential in preparing operators to make critical decisions when the stakes are high.
So to help you evaluate your own work-at-height training processes, you should consider;
- a mix of classroom based theory and hands-on practical learning
- using your own equipment on your own premises, rather than remote learning on generic equipment
- the difference between managing/supervising and performing the task and tailor training to suit both distinct roles
- coverage of all relevant H&S guidelines, regulations and legislation
- working with an established training provider who can deliver a variety of courses to meet your training needs
Formulating the right training programme should be an integral part of your safety strategy, enabling your team to work at optimal performance.
