What SEIRS training course should I sign up to? If you already have your in-date SEIRS Trainee course and you’re ready to move on to the next part of the qualification. You’ll need to sign up to the SEIRS Diploma course. This is a two-day course. Day one consists of a morning session in the classroom. By late morning all delegates move into the warehouse to commence the practical teaching element. Day two is all about the practical assessment rack build session which includes assembly of frames from kit form and a mechanical build and dismantle. Before any activity commences, all delegates are briefed and directly involved to understand key elements that include: ✩ Site induction ✩ Permit to work ✩ Familiarisation of the work area ✩ Cordon off the work area. ✩ Method statement, risk assessment, site briefing ✩ MEWP Checks (using a very specific check list) Installers who successfully pass the assessment on day two will hold a full SEIRS card for 5 years (previously 3 years). #SEIRS #RackingInstallations #SafeRackingInstallations #SEMA https://lnkd.in/eWpaSihG

USE OF LADDERS.... for Training Contact @ 00966-53-0699153 & [email protected] The 3 points of contact are a hand and two feet. However - other than for a brief period (for example, holding a nail while starting to knock it in, starting a screw etc.) - where you cannot maintain a handhold when on a leaning ladder, you will need to take other measures to prevent a fall or reduce the consequences if one happened. Use of a fall prevention system can be considered but is outside the scope of the ladder guidance. If, when on a stepladder, two hands need to be free for a brief period of light work (e.g. to change a light bulb), keep 2 feet on the same step and the body supported by the stepladder to maintain 3 points of contact.
