FAQs

Do you deliver site safety on-site in Stonehaven yards?

Will a principal accept this for a construction site?
Yes — the certificate maps to the regs the principal's auditor cites, and we'll talk to the principal's HSE team directly if useful.
Do you train outdoors year-round in Stonehaven yards?
Yes — we plan the day around weather windows. NE Scotland conditions are exactly what your operators face anyway.
What's the lead time?
Most Stonehaven yards bookings go in within 5–10 working days. Audit-deadline cover regularly lands inside a week.
Can you cohort operators with weaker English?
Yes — we adjust pace and use translated handouts where needed. Assessment is competence-based, not language-based.
