The Platform Company - Safety Training

Friday 29th August 5:44 AM

The Platform Company Training Division offers a comprehensive range of Safety Training courses that can be held at one of our IPAF Approved Training Centres or on-site.

The majority of accidents involving powered access can be avoided with safety training.

Over the last 2 years there have been:

- 148 fatalities in the UK construction industry
- 71 (48%) involve falls from height


	It’s the Law! It is a legal requirement for employers to provide adequate health and safety training for their employees. Failure of an employer to provide adequate training can make them liable to prosecution, including heavy fines and even imprisonment.

Should you require a Training Course to be held on site, we need the following information and facilities to be available at your chosen venue.

On-site contact name and telephone number - the Instructor will arrive prior to the start time to set up.

Location map and parking arrangements.

The Training Room should provide sufficient power for an overhead projector OHP and have adequate seating and desk arrangements.

A designated training area for the practical assessments of approximately 20m x 20m in size.

If not using a machine from The Platform Company please ensure there is a LOLER test certificate for that machine. If there is no certificate available, we will not be able to complete the practical.

If training is carried out on site the Instructor will require evidence of thorough examination prior to the course taking place.
