Boom Lift Training Regina

Boom Lift Training Regina - Elevated work platforms, also known as aerial platforms, enable workers to perform tasks at heights which would otherwise be inaccessible. There are various types of lifts meant for various site applications and conditions. If not carefully operated, elevated work platforms can result in death or serious injury. The most common reasons for related accidents are falls, electrocution, tip-overs and crushed body parts. Lift operators must be trained completely in techniques to avoid accidents while operating lifts.

The Aerial Lift Safety program offers needed resources in order to help people needing to learn how to operate these devices more effectively. Through the course, participants will receive thorough instruction. Types of lift covered include boom supported, scissor and articulating aerial lifts. The video presents the right procedures operators must follow. Instruction focuses on pre-operational inspection, protection against falls, stability of the device and safe driving procedures.

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

Both practical training and classroom training are parts of the Aerial Platform/Boom Truck Training program. Both sessions must 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 could be positioned totally beyond the base of the machinery. The theoretical training part is practically identical for both types. The practical training component can be finished sooner if just one kind of equipment is used.

Elevating Work Platform Training Program Objectives:

For safely operating Boom-Type Elevating Work Platforms and Self-Propelled Elevating Work Platforms, boom lift training will help operators utilize their machines more efficiently and would decrease the chances of accidents in the workplace. Trainees will review of applicable rules and company polices, discuss Due Diligence, review Criminal Negligence and consequences to employers, trainers, supervisors and workers. Participants will review machine features, stability, operating procedures, charging/fueling procedures and parking. Site-specific safety problems would be dealt with.
