Site Safety Training delivered where you work in Peterhead

Logan Plant Training delivers accredited site safety training on-site across Peterhead (AB42), about 55 road miles from our Aboyne base (~1 hr 15 via A90 / A952). We work with fishing, processing, energy and port operators operating around Peterhead Port and the surrounding industrial estates — including teams at Peterhead Port Authority, SSE Peterhead Power Station, Lunar Fishing / processors, and shape each site safety course around your equipment, shift patterns and risk profile.

The course covers practical site safety operation and the regulations that apply on your site — including Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and CDM 2015. Tidal windows and 24-hour shift handovers at Peterhead Port mean refresher and operator training has to slot around the operation — we cohort sessions across shifts so the quayside never stops. On completion, successful candidates receive an accredited site safety certificate, recognised by auditors and procurement teams across Buchan, Aberdeenshire.

Prerequisites: None. Designed for new starts and refresher cohorts alike.
Pricing guide: Day rate typically £400–£800 per cohort of up to 12.
