PPE Inspection Course

Overview

Personal Protective Equipment used in work-at-height systems must be reliably maintained and inspected throughout its lifetime in order to meet legal and manufacturer’s requirements. Equipment that is properly managed meets these requirements and provides a higher level of confidence to the user. It also prolongs the lifetime of the equipment.

This course is all about teaching how to inspect and maintain equipment in order to determine if a product is fit for use, and how to manage systems.
