If an employee’s role involves carrying out – or potentially carrying out – work involving a MEWP (Mobile Elevating Work Platform), an IPAF (International Powered Access Federation) License is highly recommended. MEWPS are sometimes referred to as “powered access equipment” and include cherry pickers, scissor lifts and boom lifts.

PASMA training covers the use of mobile access towers which can also be referred to as mobile scaffold towers. There are a number of different types of PASMA training courses available, and as a PASMA registered and approved training centre we are able to deliver the nationally recognised PASMA training syllabus for competency in mobile towers.

The CITB (Construction Industry Training Board) works in partnership with the Sector Skills Council.

Asbestos materials have been used for decades for building insulation as well as in roofing, water supply piping and even in vehicle parts. However, if asbestos fibres are released into the air and inhaled, the long term effects can be catastrophic to health. This means that nowadays more modern alternatives are used instead, and asbestos is now mostly only found in older buildings (pre 2000).
