Our members strive for an injury free work environment in the wind turbine industry, setting common international standards for safety training and emergency procedures. • This standard describes the requirements for lift training courses that are recommended by the members of GWO. This standard comprises of three modules:
4) Service Lift User Module
5) Lift Commission and Inspection Module
6) Lift Commission, Inspection, Installation and Maintenance Module
• The members of the Global Wind Organisation (GWO) recognise trained persons as competent within use, inspection, installation, and maintenance of lifts in the wind industry and accept the trained person as possessing the required abilities to use, commission, inspect, install, maintain, and evacuate a lift where they as duty-holders are accountable for safety. • This standard has been developed in response to the demand for recognisable lift training in the industry and has been prepared in co-operation between the members of GWO based on risk assessments and factual incident and accident statistics from G+ and the wind industry. Disputes and potential non-conformities should be brought to the attention of the GWO Audit and Compliance Committee.
