WHY PERMIT TO WORK SYSTEMS ARE CRUCIAL
£20
+ VAT
PER PERSON*
Without a regulated Permit to Work system, personnel, plant, and the environment are exposed to avoidable hazards and potential harm. Whether carrying out maintenance, confined space entry, hot work, or other hazardous tasks, a formal PTW process is critical. This course is designed to give staff the knowledge and confidence to understand their individual responsibilities within a PTW system. It reinforces the importance of maintaining control through clearly defined procedures, ensuring safe systems of work are consistently followed.
