This 25-minute course covers the controls the company has in place for work equipment and the measures staff should apply to reduce risk when using it. It helps them appreciate the risks and consequences involved, identify the control measures already implemented, and recognise when equipment is unsuitable, damaged or being used outside its intended purpose.
Equipment incidents usually follow a shortcut taken under time pressure: a guard removed, a check skipped, a tool used for something it was not designed for. Maintenance and inspection regimes only work if faults get reported. Training operators on why the controls exist keeps the reporting flowing and supports your duties under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations.
