Our GWO Manual Handling training is designed to promote safe practices for physical work in the wind industry, focusing on the prevention of injuries related to manual handling tasks. This course is essential for anyone working in and around wind turbines, whether onshore or offshore, and forms an integral part of the GWO Basic Safety Training (BST) standard. Through practical instruction and theoretical knowledge, participants are encouraged to adopt positive manual handling and ergonomic behavior, as well as to consider alternatives to manual handling through effective planning.
The training emphasizes the importance of safety awareness and equips participants with the skills needed to perform manual handling tasks safely and efficiently. By completing our GWO Manual Handling training, individuals can reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries, improve workplace efficiency, and ensure compliance with industry standards. Successful participants receive a GWO-approved Manual Handling certificate, which is valid for two years. This certification demonstrates that individuals meet the requirements for working safely in the wind industry.
