Everything You Need To Know
As the providers of PASMA courses London candidates recommend, we’re used to guiding construction professionals to success. Here is everything you need to know about the training.
What Is PASMA?
First things first: what is PASMA? It stands for ‘Prefabricated Access Suppliers and Manufacturers Association’ – which is a bit of a mouthful to say every time! A huge number of health and safety professionals are aware of PASMA and the work that they do. PASMA aims to standardise the construction of alloy towers all over the world. They have also established strict guidelines to minimise the risk of customer injury.
It’s impossible to prevent all accidents – but PASMA’s efforts have helped to reduce numbers all over the world.
About The Course
What does a PASMA course involve, and who is it for? A PASMA course introduces attendees to the safe assembly, movement, and disassembly of mobile access towers that are used on construction sites. Working at height carries a number of risks, and taking part in the course equips candidates with the skill and knowledge they need to carry out their roles safely. It’s for this reason that PASMA courses are recommended for anyone who works at height. They are also an option for those who do not work at height but inspect mobile access towers for safety purposes.
