The Crucial Role of Specialised Training
The installation of large format banners is full of challenges, many of which stem from the necessity of working at considerable heights and operating sophisticated machinery. Specialised training courses such as IRATA, PASMA, SSSTS, IPAF and SMSTS are not merely regulatory checkboxes but essential tools that equip teams with the knowledge and skills to mitigate these risks. Moreover, they elevate the standard of installations, marrying safety with precision to meet and exceed client expectations.
IRATA: Mastery Over Heights
For installations that demand vertical creativity, the IRATA certification is non-negotiable. It's the gold standard for rope access work, allowing technicians to scale buildings and structures where traditional access methods compromise safety. The meticulous training process improves their ability to navigate challenging environments, ensuring that each banner is installed with minimal disruption and maximum safety.
PASMA: Stability from the Ground Up
When it comes to establishing a firm foundation, PASMA training takes center stage. It ensures that mobile access towers are assembled and dismantled with the utmost regard for stability and safety. For GESS Ltd, every installation begins on solid ground, quite literally. The ability to quickly and safely erect these structures is indispensable, especially in bustling urban environments where efficiency is as crucial as safety.
SSSTS: Leading with Safety
Behind every successful installation is a team led by individuals who are not just supervisors but guardians of safety. The SSSTS course empowers these leaders with a deep understanding of safety regulations, enabling them to develop a culture of vigilance and responsibility. At GESS Ltd, SSSTS-certified supervisors are the key to project success, ensuring that every team member is aligned with the company's high standards for safety and professionalism.
IPAF: Elevating Efficiency Safely
IPAF certification is the beacon of safe operation in powered access equipment. It's about mastering the machines that elevate personnel and materials, ensuring every lift is a step towards greater efficiency. For banner installations that require a lift above the rest, IPAF-trained operators are indispensable. Their expertise not only propels projects to new heights but ensures that each ascent and descent is a model of safety.
SMSTS: Site Management Excellence
In the world of large-format banner installations, the SMSTS (Site Management Safety Training Scheme) stands as a foundation of comprehensive site management and safety. This training scheme is not just an add-on but a crucial element that complements the existing collection of certifications held by GESS Ltd's team. Aimed at site managers, supervisors, and those with site management responsibilities, SMSTS equips them with the knowledge and skills to ensure health, safety, welfare, and environmental issues are efficiently managed and compliant with legal provisions.
