Fort Mcmurray Boom Lift Training - Aerial platforms or also known as elevated work platforms are devices which allow workers to carry out tasks and duties at elevated heights which will not be otherwise accessible. There are different aerial lifts available to carry out different applications under different site conditions. If operated carelessly, elevated work platforms can cause serious injury or death. The most common reasons for related accidents are electrocution, falls, crushed body parts and tip-overs. Lift operators must be trained fully in techniques to be able to avoid accidents while operating lifts.
The Aerial Lift Safety course provides required resources to be able to help those required to learn how to operate these devices more effectively. Through the course, participants will be given thorough instruction. Kinds of lift covered include boom supported, scissor and articulating aerial lifts. The video presents the correct techniques operators must follow. Instruction focuses on pre-operational check, protection against falls, safe driving procedure and stability of the device.
The boom lift training program would help to address employee safety and equipment reliability, using materials that are fully compliant with your regional and local requirements and regulations. Course management and training methods will be taught. The trainer would also know the technical aspects of aerial lift safety.
Components of the Boom Lift Training course consist of both classroom training and practical training. Both sessions should be completed successfully for the participant to be given a certificate of achievement.
The self-propelled boom-supported elevating work platforms are different from the self-propelled elevating work platforms in that they are able to position their work platforms completely beyond the base of the machine. The theoretical training component is almost the same for both types. The practical training part can be finished more quickly if just one type of machine is utilized.
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 will help operators to make more efficient use of elevating work platforms whilst lessening the chances of an expensive accident in the workplace. Trainees will review of company policies and applicable rules, discuss Due Diligence, review Criminal Negligence and consequences to employers, trainers, workers and supervisors. Participants would study machine features, stability, operating procedures, parking and fueling/charging procedures. Site-specific safety issues would be addressed.
