Why teams in Kintore book this
Kintore is built on working at height, and competence paperwork fails an audit faster than people expect. On-site Working at Height Training is how we close that gap without pulling operators off the rota.
Kintore on the ground: AWPR-adjacent commuter and logistics belt with rail revival. Typical buildings: logistics warehouses, rail-adjacent compounds.

- Lanyard clipped to a scaffold tube of unknown anchor rating
- No suspension-trauma protocol — death can occur inside 20 minutes of a fall arrest
FAQs
- Have you worked with sites near Kintore before?
- Regularly — we work around Kintore Industrial Estate, Midmill Business Park, Network Rail Kintore station ops. That means we already know the gate, induction and permit routine, so the cohort starts on time.
- Will our Kintore site suit on-site delivery?
- Kintore sites are mostly logistics warehouses, rail-adjacent compounds, which suits on-site delivery well — we need a safe practical area, a room or cabin for theory, and access for our vehicle off the A96.
- What happens if the weather closes the site?
- We carry on with theory and assessment indoors where possible; if the practical isn't safe we re-plan the practical day — no extra charge.
- Do you cover sites near Kintore?
- Yes — the same instructors cover the surrounding NE Scotland area weekly from Aboyne, so adjacent-yard cohorts add little to no travel cost.
- Can novice and refresher run in the same cohort?
- Yes. We run mixed cohorts routinely — the instructor splits the day so novice candidates aren't slowed by refresher assessment.
