Vancouver Boom Lift Training

Vancouver Boom Lift Training - Elevated work platforms, likewise referred to as aerial platforms, enable workers to carry out tasks at heights that would otherwise be inaccessible. There are various kinds of lifts meant for various site applications and conditions. If operated carelessly, elevated work platforms can cause fatality or serious injury. The most common reasons for related accidents are falls, electrocution, crushed body parts and tip-overs. Lift operators must be fully trained in procedures to avoid accidents while operating lifts.

The Aerial Lift Safety program offers required resources to help those needing to learn how to operate these devices more effectively. Through the course, participants would receive thorough instruction. Kinds of lift covered consist of articulating, boom supported and scissor aerial lifts. The video presents the correct techniques operators should follow. Instruction focuses on pre-operational check, protection against falls, safe driving procedure and stability of the device.

The course addresses employee safety and equipment reliability. All instructional materials are compliant with government, provincial and state agency requirements and regulations. Course management and training techniques will be taught. The trainer would also become well versed in the technical aspects of aerial lift safety.

Components of the Boom Lift Training course consist of both practical training and classroom training. Both sessions should be completed successfully for the participant to receive a certificate of achievement.

The difference between self-propelled elevating work platforms and self-propelled boom-supported elevating work platforms is that, on the latter type, work platforms can be positioned entirely beyond the base of the machinery. The theoretical component of the training is almost the same for both types. The practical training part can be completed sooner if just one type of machinery is used.

Elevating Work Platform Training Program Objectives:

For safely operating Boom-Type Elevating Work Platforms and Self-Propelled Elevating Work Platforms, boom lift training would help operators utilize their equipment more effectively and will decrease the chances of accidents in the workplace. Trainees would review of business policies and applicable regulations, talk about Due Diligence, study Criminal Negligence and consequences to employers, trainers, employees and supervisors. Participants would study machine features, stability, operating procedures, parking and fueling/charging procedures. Site-specific safety issues will be dealt with.
