to increase their safety through proper use of personal protective equipment, emergency equipment, procedures, and safe craftsmanship. 5.1 Overview The GWO Lift Standard’s modules are a mix of theoretical and practical elements focusing on developing the needed knowledge, skills, and abilities for a wind employee to operate, commission, inspect, install, maintain, and evacuate a lift in a WTG. The Lift Standard’s modules have a generic focus in relation to different lift types and systems, and the initiative and responsibility to follow guidance in relevant manuals when needed is a basic part of the learning objectives in these modules. 5.2 Target Group Target group for the Lift User Module training is personnel working on WTGs within the wind industry where the use of lifts is required for transportation of personnel and equipment inside the WTG. Target group for the Lift Commission and Inspection Module training is personnel working on WTGs within the wind industry who shall inspect the installation and functioning of lifts in a WTG for the purpose of commissioning of the lift. Target group for the Lift Commission, Inspection, Installation and Maintenance Module training is personnel working on WTGs within the wind industry by commissioning, inspecting, installing, and doing maintaining work on lifts in a WTG. 5.3 Validity Period The Lift Standard trainings are enduring qualifications and therefore a validity period does not apply to these trainings. This assumes that the participant is actively working with the use, inspection, installation, and maintenance respectively of lifts. 5.4 Aims and Objectives Training in accordance with this Lift Standard will enable participants to take responsibility to support and care for themselves and others while operating and working on a lift in the wind industry.
The Lift User Module is aimed at using a lift in the wind industry.
The Lift Commission and Inspection Module is aimed at inspection and testing a lift in the wind industry after pre- assembly in the WTG. The Lift Commission, Inspection, Installation and Maintenance Module is aimed at doing commissioning, inspection, installing, and maintaining work on a lift in a WTG. These aims are fulfilled when the participants possess the required knowledge, skills, and abilities to conduct assigned tasks and operations in a lift safely and efficiently.
A prerequisite for being able to do this is that the relevant manuals and guides are at hand and used at all times.
