Operator & Maintenance Training

It is vital for all your operators to be trained in the safe use of the equipment. This is a key part of the PUWER regulations (Proper Use of Work Equipment Regulations).

If your staff are not trained and more importantly you cannot provide records to prove to a health and safety inspector that your staff have been properly trained then should anything go wrong, the liability will fall on you.

Bergmann Direct always provide training with any new equipment we provide and we can do refresher training at any time.
