Description
The aim of this module is to qualify the delegates, through theoretical and practical training, to use basic personal protective equipment and perform safe work at heights and safe and comprehensive basic rescue from heights. Furthermore, to encourage positive manual handling and ergonomic behaviour, encourage delegates to consider alternatives to manual handling through planning and to train delegates ability to perform Manual Handling tasks in a safe manner in the wind turbine industry/environment.
Learning Objectives
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate knowledge of hazards and risks associated with working at height specific to a wind turbine generator (WTG)
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate understanding of current national and regional legislation regarding Working at Heights
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate correct identification of PPE, including identification of European/Global standard markings e.g. harness, hard hat, lanyards, etc.
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate the knowledge and skills to correctly perform pre-use inspection, service, store and correctly fit relevant PPE, e.g. harness, fall arrest lanyards, guided type fall arrest devices and work positioning lanyards
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate correct use of the relevant PPE, e.g. harnesses fall arrest lanyards, guided type fall arresters and work positioning lanyards. This includes correct identification of anchor points and correct conduct on ladder
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate correct use of evacuation devices
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate how to approach rescue situations in WTGs and use rescue equipment efficiently
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate a problem-solving approach to Manual Handling in a wind turbine environment
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate Manual Handling risk reduction techniques
- The Delegates are able to identify aspects of their job tasks that could increase their risk of developing muscular/ skeletal injuries
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate understanding of the importance of carrying out work duties in a safe and sound manner in accordance with the legislative requirements of their geographic work location
- The Delegates are able to demonstrate understanding of safe practices of Manual Handling, including the correct handling of equipment
- The Delegates are able to identify signs and symptoms of injuries related to poor Manual Handling techniques and have knowledge of reporting methods
Prerequisites
- All personnel participating in Refresher Training shall be medically fit and capable of fully participating.
- The Delegates shall also have a personal Delegate profile in WINDA and provide their own WINDA ID prior to completing the BST training.
