PASMA Safety Training Course
There are two types of PASMA courses which emphasize on safety training. These are important industry courses which are growing popular as more industry players are growing concerned over the risks and dangers of work in any height related work environment.
PASMA Standard Course
The first of PASMA safety training courses is the standard course which offers delegates the opportunity to secure the coveted certification in Mobile Access Towers. This course is only one day long but emphasizes strongly on safety and preventive issues.
The course would only allow a maximum of twelve participants in any course session to offer sufficient attention to every learning candidate. This course is strongly recommended to those who are involved in erecting and dismantling mobile access towers as well as their usage.
The course aims to equip learners with the right information on tower erection, usage, inspection and dismantling; different tower materials such as fiberglass and aluminum are referred. At the end of this course, the learners would be equipped with the right knowledge of statutory regulations, identify the safe working heights and loads to lower risks and dangers with the proper skills to inspect or move all equipment related to mobile access towers.
Course content
The standard PASMA course would review the national Health and Safety regulations as well as legislation with the course code of practice. There would be an understanding of instruction manuals by manufacturers on mobile towers with references on site and ground conditions for the proper erection and dismantling of the towers.
Course learners would be equipped with the right use of sole pads, stabilizers, ties and outriggers. They would be taught how to undertake the inspection report procedure properly while identifying the different types of erections related to mobile access towers such as guardrails, traps and other peripheral components.
Passing a multiple choice test would qualify the candidate for the PASMA Standard course as well as move the graduate on to the PASMA Advanced Module.
PASMA Advanced Modules
The advanced PASMA course emphasizes on chimney scaffolds, bridging units, Cantilever Access & linked towers and lightweight staging. The course is only one day with a maximum 12 delegates per session. This course is meant to equip those who are actively involved in advanced erection and dismantling of towers and their ancillary components. Safety training is part and parcel of this course to help candidate conduct safe tower erections, usage and dismantling. Candidates would be well versed with the work loads at various heights, health issues, safety legislature, Code of practice, site conditions and inspection procedure.
Passing the multiple choice test qualifies the candidates to this advanced PASMA module certification.
