Does anyone out there know of any such course, where I work there are a lot of operatives wearing harnesses who have not been trained. It would be useful if the course were in the Midlands area.

Can I suggest that you contact the PPE manufacturer/supplier or salesman that sold it to you. I found that they are willing to provide this FOC if they were given the correct motivation (another sale perhaps). As you may guess, many harnesses have different configuration. Training also should mention recommended attachment points, fall distances and the health efects during and after a fall - its quite important, almost blood stopping information.

Also, some manufacturers will supply videos etc but if you have staff using equipment, you would need to prove competency and competent training (proof using a record or cert!!!).

Trust that this helps.

Ian
