Customer Feedback

Why Is Competency Management Training Important?

In Great Britain alone, the construction industry sees an average of 61,000 non-fatal injuries each year. The sector also sees the highest annual rate of fatal injuries: around 36. These involve cases of falls from height, being trapped by something collapsing, being struck by moving vehicles and contact with machinery.

A common thread to these accidents and incidents is very often human error. Contractors and workers on site fail to use the systems that are in place to protect them. Simple errors result in aches and pains, escalating project costs and the unnecessary loss of life. Anyone whose role it is to assess competency has a moral, legal and financial duty to ensure they are able to do their job sufficiently.

About Competency Management Training

This online training course explains how to assess and manage competency in a construction project. The client, along with any other duty holder appointing someone to work on a project, is legally obligated to ensure those appointed are adequately competent.
