Combined Low-Level Access & Towers Training
If you work with mobile access towers and low level access equipment, you can do both courses at the same time. Ask your training centre for the PASMA Combined Low-Level Access and Towers for Users course, which gives you both qualifications in one day.
The combined course covers all the content from Towers for Users as well as everything from Low-Level Access. Separately, these courses would take 1.5 days. But when you do them at the same time, our expert instructors can streamline the content into one learning-packed day.

Literacy, Fitness & Health Statement (Extract from the PASMA Code of Practice): Since the safe use of mobile towers requires that you consult safety notices and read and thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s instruction manual, literacy and language comprehension are important requirements for any tower user.
Similarly, since the assembly and use of mobile access towers can be physically demanding, users should be physically fit and in good health and should, generally, not have problems with eyesight or hearing, heart disease, high blood pressure, epilepsy, fear of heights / vertigo, giddiness / difficulty with balance, impaired limb function, alcohol or drug dependence or psychiatric illness
If delegates have any problems with literacy or language comprehension, or have any doubts about their fitness to use mobile access towers, they must bring them to the attention of their employer. This need not preclude them from using mobile access towers, provided their employer conducts an assessment and is able to put into place adequate measures, to take account of any difficulties they may have.
Qualifications & Experience: No formal qualifications or experience are necessary, but it would be beneficial if delegates had a basic understanding of work at height issues.
