Course details:
In the UK, one of the main cause of serious workplace accidents are falls from height. Where scaffolding is not maintained, inspected and signed off by a competent person major accidents become a very real possibility.
This course is has been designed specifically for those responsible for ensuring that basic scaffolds are erected and maintained correctly. This responsibility often falls to Site Managers or Supervisors who may not have an extensive background in scaffolding. As such this course will highlight the many scaffold components, how they are to be used correctly and regulations surrounding scaffolding erection including Working at Height Regulations (2005), BS EN 12811-1 and NASC guidance (TG20:13)
The training is delivered over 2 days and split between classroom and practical exercises, including the inspection of reconstructed scaffolds.
NB: This course is designed to equip students with the knowledge and competence to inspect basic scaffolds (design scaffolds not included)
Successful Students will receive a certificate of successful completion and a Training ID card for use on site.
Please note; delegates are required to bring photo ID.
