 LANGUAGE COMPREHENSION

Safe-Tech programs are conducted in English and best suited for participants with good English comprehension. Please advise our office at the time of booking and prior to the start of the course of any comprehension concerns or if you will be providing a translator when warranted. The instructors will do their best to accommodate, however Safe-Tech cannot be held responsible for any situation where comprehension was a factor due to a language barrier or impediment.

PRACTICAL TESTING (FOR EXISTING OPERATORS)

Practical operator testing is held on-site at your facility and is scheduled following the in-class segment.  The instructor will work with 1 - 2 operators at a time for approximately 30 - 60 minutes and each will be put through a series of operating tasks and manoeuvres to assess competency and safety awareness on the equipment. Pre-shift inspection and reporting procedures are also covered. Additional time will be required for testing on more than 2 pieces of equipment or attachments.

PRACTICAL TRAINING (FOR NEW OPERATORS)

Participants with little or no practical operating experience will require practical operator training prior to practical testing.  The duration of practical training varies based on equipment type and aptitude of the operator.  Practical training is an additional charge to this program and should be pre-scheduled.
