The slinger signaller training is a course that was released by the GWO (Global Wind Organisation) in 2019 after industry leaders highlighted concerns that lifting and slinging operations in the wind industry was potentially high risk to personnel.
The specific aim of this course is to introduce users of lifting equipment to safe techniques for slinging and lifting operations.
Slingers’ main responsibility is to communicate with the Crane Operator using a series of hand signals. These hand signals help the operator to manoeuvre the crane in a safe and efficient way.
On successful completion of the course, the candidates will be presented with an NPORS Trained Operators Card and certificate, evidencing their abilities. They will be able to establish the weight and dimensions of loads and communicate this information to the crane operator.
Accredited by the National Plant Operators Registration Scheme (NPORS) & Independent Training Standards Scheme & Register (ITSSAR), Pro Trainers UK provides quality training to those in need of Certificate of Competence and Achievement.
