Responsibilities of the Employer / Manager of Lifting Equipment Operators
Course Summary
We are asked many times by our customers exactly what they are obliged to do when employing operators and how they can continue to comply with health and safety legislation whilst the operator is in their charge. Ironically, the sheer volume of safety-related legislation and paperwork that an employer or manager is expected to digest can, in itself, be a major obstacle to improving safety and complying with the law.
To help you to cut through the non-relevant literature and find the information that you need most, we run one-day information courses aimed at employers, managers, health and safety officers, human resources managers and those who have any responsibility for the health and safety of operators of lifting equipment. The course is tailored to suit customer requirements and can covers the type of lifting equipment relevant to that customer. Examples would be forklift trucks, to overhead cranes, hiabs and construction equipment etc.
On completion of the course you will understand the statutory requirements of employers / Managers and Supervisors of Lifting Operations under the Health and Safety at Work Act.
As a record of your achievement, a TAL certificate of training is provided.
