Boom Lift Training Red Deer

Boom Lift Training Red Deer - Aerial platforms or elevated work platforms are devices that enable workers to carry out tasks and duties at elevated heights that would not be otherwise reachable. There are different aerial lifts available to perform various applications under various site conditions. If not carefully operated, elevated work platforms could lead to serious injury or fatality. The most common reasons for related accidents are electrocution, falls, tip-overs and crushed body parts. Lift operators must be completely trained in techniques to prevent accidents during the operation of lifts.

The Aerial Lift Safety course provides needed resources to help individuals needing to learn how to operate these devices more effectively. Through the program, participants would receive thorough instruction. Kinds of lift covered comprise boom supported, scissor and articulating aerial lifts. The video presents the right methods operators should follow. Instruction focuses on pre-operational inspection, protection against falls, safe driving procedure and stability of the device.

The program addresses equipment reliability and employee safety. All instructional materials are compliant with state, government and provincial agency regulations and requirements. Course management and training techniques would be taught. The trainer will also become well versed in the technical aspects of aerial lift safety.

Components of the Boom Lift Training program comprise both classroom training and practical training. Both sessions should be successfully finished for the participant to receive a certificate of achievement.

The difference between self-propelled elevating work platforms and self-propelled boom-supported elevating work platforms is that, on the latter type, work platforms can be positioned entirely beyond the base of the equipment. The theoretical training component is nearly the same for both kinds. The practical training component can be completed more quickly if only one type of machine is used.

Elevating Work Platform Training Program Objectives:

Aerial Platform/Boom Lift Training provides competency requirements for safely operating Boom-Type Elevating Work Platforms and Self-Propelled Elevating Work Platforms (for use on paved/slab surfaces). Training would help operators to make more efficient use of elevating work platforms whilst decreasing the possibilities of a costly workplace accident. Trainees will review of applicable rules and business polices, discuss Due Diligence, study Criminal Negligence and consequences to employers, trainers, employees and supervisors. Participants would review machine features, operating procedures, stability, parking and fueling/charging procedures. Site-specific safety concerns will be addressed.
