Re: Current Career

Having had Dave as a supervisor previously I would always tend to take heed of any advice coming from him. I would question the L&D adviser over the IOSH instructor statement. There is no requirement to be registered with BSC to deliver IOSH training. From the IOSH website All trainers who wish ...

Re: train the trainer-MEWP/Work at Height

Juliet, I'd be very careful there as training someone to deliver toolbox talks is very different from training someone to train an operator on MEWP's or any other piece of work equipment.

Re: Abrasive Wheels

Si,

Re: Work/Career: I have complete lack of motivation ? don't feel empowered

Re: Mobile Scaffold Advice

It's a no from me I'm afraid - any scaffold tower instruction manual will tell you not to mix and match (or at least it should) What grim72 said but I'd also include that any training, whether PASMA accredited or not, should highlight that replacement parts must be compatible and the only way you c...
