5 G ENERAL R EQUIREMENTS FOR GWO SLINGER SIGNALLER
Upon completion of the GWO Slinger Signaller module (SS), participants will be aware of the risks and hazards encountered when working with Slinger Signalling within the wind industry. Furthermore, they will be able to control and mitigate those risks and hazards. The GWO Slinger Signaller training module will also equip participants with the knowledge, skills and ability to appropriately respond in the event of a hazardous situation and to increase their safety through proper use of personal protective equipment, emergency equipment, procedures and safe craftsmanship.
5.1 Target group
Personnel working within the wind industry conducting slinging techniques and signalling during simple lifting operations, meaning lifts conducted based on a lifting plan covering known hazards.
5.2 Aims and strategic objectives
Training in accordance with this standard will enable participants to take responsibility to support and care for themselves and others while working with slinger signalling in the wind industry by possessing the required knowledge, skills and ability to conduct assigned tasks safely and efficiently.
5.3 Guidance on delivering lesson elements
Section 9.1 gives approximate duration of each of the lessons. The training provider may choose to deliver elements of the training according to other timetables, provided that the total duration is not reduced, and the duration of practical elements are not reduced in length. Theoretical elements should be delivered during the practical exercises whenever feasible.
5.4 Validity Period
The slinger signaller training is an enduring qualification and therefore a validity period does not apply to this training. This assumes that the participant is actively working with slinger signalling tasks.
