day course available, PASMA Towers for Users.<br />
Through this course users will learn:<br />
• How to safely assemble, dismantle, alter and<br />
move mobile access towers<br />
• How to safely use mobile access towers<br />
• How to inspect mobile access towers<br />
• How to identify hazards relating to their use<br />
• What legislation, regulations and guidance are<br />
applicable to these towers<br />
For those who work with towers and low-level<br />
access equipment, there is a combined course that<br />
will equip users with the specialist knowledge they<br />
need to work safely with this equipment.<br />
Werner has launched its Stepping<br />
up to Safety campaign for when<br />
people are working at height<br />
If a user is new to towers or tower training, Towers<br />
for Users, and/or the combined course is the ideal<br />
starting place.<br />
It’s taken by more than 70,000 delegates each<br />
year and once it’s been completed, users become<br />
eligible for more advanced courses which cover<br />
different tower configurations, such as linked<br />
towers, towers on stairways, cantilever towers or<br />
towers with bridges.<br />
Once one of the above courses had been<br />
completed, if applicable, users can then move on<br />
to more advanced tower configurations.<br />
There’s a dedicated course for each standard<br />
tower configuration.<br />
They each last one day and can be completed in<br />
any order. Learning to work safely with advanced<br />
standard configurations means that users can<br />
use towers on more challenging sites, overcome<br />
obstacles and create larger platforms.<br />
At the end of these PASMA training courses, users<br />
will receive a certificate and card, which is valid<br />
for five years, to demonstrate competence when<br />
working with towers.<br />
Training partner<br />
Werner is proud to work as a partner with both<br />
the Ladder Association and PASMA to offer ladder<br />
safety and tower training courses to individuals<br />
and businesses with a view to increasing the<br />
safety of working at height.<br />
Stepping up to Safety<br />
As part of its bid to help increase safety when<br />
people are working at height, Werner has recently<br />
launched its Stepping up to Safety campaign, to help<br />
professionals stay safe when working at height.<br />
Working at height injuries and fatalities can be<br />
reduced with the drive for change from industry<br />
manufacturers and associations to lead the way in<br />
safety when working at height, leaving employers<br />
and employees feeling confident and safe at work.<br />
