Why teams in Banchory book this

Banchory is built on manufacturing, and Shift rotations mean refresher cohorts have to land across nights, twilight and days in the same week. On-site manufacturing training is how we close that gap without pulling operators off the rota.

Manufacturing & Food context: Aberdeen manufacturing and food plants run multi-shift FLT/MEWP rotations with strict housekeeping audits.

FAQs

Can we use our own equipment?
We strongly recommend it. Training on your machines means the assessment evidences how your operators actually work.
When should we book the next manufacturing training cohort?
Refresher every 3 years; quarterly observation top-ups.. For manufacturing operations we usually plan the cohort into the quiet part of your cycle so production isn't the thing that delays competence.
Which regulations does manufacturing training map to here?
PUWER 1998, HACCP (food), COSHH, Manual handling regs. We print the mapping on the evidence pack so the manufacturing client or principal contractor can tie the certificate to the reg they cited.
Can you cohort operators with weaker English?
Yes — we adjust pace and use translated handouts where needed. Assessment is competence-based, not language-based.
How often is refresher training required?
Refresher every 3 years; quarterly observation top-ups., sooner if a near-miss, machine change or audit finding triggers it.
