Mentor Training is now able
to offer PASMA training
for the use of mobile access
towers, both at its approved training
centre and on customer sites.
The standard one-day course, which can accommodate up to 12 delegates, covers tower assembly, stability, repositioning, inspection, dismantling, care and maintenance and tower safety, including regulations and standards such as Work at Height 2005. According to these regulations, mobile access and scaffolding towers should only be used under the supervision of competent persons.
Competent persons are those trained in fall protection, hazards and their reporting, maintenance and inspection, and safe and emergency procedures of work. These are all covered on the PASMA course.
Companies authorised by PASMA are subject to thorough assessments and audits to ensure compliance with the standards. On successful completion of the course, delegates receive a certificate and photo card to demonstrate their compliance with PASMA standards.
