This course is tailored for Earth Moving Equipment operators working in construction sites and industrial yards. It helps employers in the Construction, Oil & Gas, and Production sectors meet safety requirements while equipping participants with essential skills and knowledge for safe and effective operations.
Understanding the various types of Earth Moving Equipment and their safe operation.
Awareness of hazards and implementation of safe systems of work.
Selection and onsite inspection of machinery.
Understanding operator responsibilities and competencies.
Knowledge of legislation and safety standards.
Learning from accident histories and case studies to prevent incidents.
The course is divided into two sections:
Section-1:
Section-2:
Course Duration: One (01) Day – Theory & Assessment
Participants: Maximum 15, Minimum 05
Pre-requisites: Familiarity with Earth Moving Equipment and safe work practices commonly used in construction sites, industrial yards, and the Oil & Gas sector.
Course Venue: The course will be conducted at the RICI Training Center or at the client’s premises, tailored to meet their needs and convenience. The number of participants for tailored sessions will depend on available facilities.
Participants will be assessed based on their performance throughout the course. A certificate of competence will be issued to delegates who meet the required standards.
