Pre Course Requirements
This course can be delivered on site at the client's premises. Many organisations have adopted JSP 375 Volume 3 Chapter 4 (or parts thereof) as the basis for a Safe System of Work as applied to mechanical systems. For practicable commonality this course is therefore based on the content of this document together with HSG 253 Safe Isolation of Equipment. However, practical documentation will be tailored to meet the company specific Safety Rules and Procedures as required
