Why teams in Ellon book this
We've delivered fish-processing training across Ellon for refresher every 3 years; new-season inductions in spring.. The pattern is consistent: Wet floors + cold-store FLT + pedestrians is the recurring HSE finding in NE seafood plants. On-site delivery on your equipment, with refresher cycles planned into your operation, is the cure.
Fish & Seafood Processing context: Peterhead and the Broch run cold-store FLT, pallet-truck pedestrian flow and rapid temperature shifts on the same shift.

FAQs
- How experienced are the instructors?
- Our instructors are operator-trained, audit-experienced and have decades on NE Scotland sites — not classroom-only.
- 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.
- Do you cover sites near Ellon?
- Yes — the same instructors cover the surrounding NE Scotland area weekly from Aboyne, so adjacent-yard cohorts add little to no travel cost.
- 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.
- What happens if an operator fails?
- We re-coach on the spot where possible and re-assess; if the gap is bigger we plan a short repeat block rather than a full re-run.
