Do you do follow-up observation visits?

Yes — short post-course observation visits are a cheap way to lock in the behaviour change auditors actually want to see.

What evidence do you return?

Photo-ID certificate, assessment record, regulation mapping and refresher-due date. Sent to whichever HR / training system you use.

What if we need to rebook?

We hold dates flexibly. If site conditions change, we move the cohort — there's no rebooking fee for genuine site reasons.

Can you cover night or weekend shifts?

Yes — we routinely cohort sessions around shift handovers and weekend possessions, with no shift premium.

Yes — accredited certificates aligned with Work at Height Regulations 2005 and LOLER 1998 are issued to successful candidates.

Why teams in Insch book this

Insch is built on MEWP, and competence paperwork fails an audit faster than people expect. On-site MEWP Training is how we close that gap without pulling operators off the rota.

Insch on the ground: Garioch market village with light industrial and rail-served estates. Typical buildings: rail-served estates, agri sheds.

Why this matters

MEWP-related deaths recorded by IPAF globally in 2023; falls and entrapment lead.

Typical MEWP scenarios on Insch sites

Scenario 1
Boom-lift work near live overhead lines and the 9 m exclusion rule
Scenario 2
Scissor on a mezzanine where loadings need checking before deployment
Scenario 3
Wind-speed call: 12.5 m/s manufacturer limit vs the day's gust forecast

Audit findings this prevents

No rescue plan on file — IPAF and HSE inspectors ask for this every visit
Harness clipped to the basket rail instead of the manufacturer anchor
Outriggers deployed onto soft ground without a spreader plate
