In-company training for the people who write, issue and manage permits to work. Run as a one-day general course, or a two-day course that adds the specialist permits.
Both formats train the people who write, issue and manage permits to work. The one-day course covers general permits; the two-day course adds the specialist permits for higher-risk work.
Permit to work training prepares the people who write, issue and manage permits to work: understanding when a permit is needed, how the system works, the duty-holder roles, and the risk assessments and method statements behind it. KeyOstas runs it as a one-day general course or a two-day course that adds the specialist permits.
It is for the people who write, issue and manage permits to work.
By the end of the course, every delegate will be able to do the following.
Identify the circumstances that require a permit to work within their company.
Explain the permit to work system and the duty-holder responsibilities.
Explain the role of risk assessments and method statements in preparing permit operations.
Identify the actions and conditions that lead to permit to work failure.
Critically appraise company permit documentation against current HSE guidance.
Work through real permit to work scenarios in syndicate exercises.
Identify the specific requirements of specialist permits, including hot work, confined space and electrical (two-day course).
Draw the practical lessons from case studies of permit and system failure.
The one-day course covers the general permit system; the two-day course adds the specialist permits.
Practical and discussion-led, worked through syndicate exercises and your own paperwork.
A KeyOstas tutor delivers the course at your premises, as a one-day or two-day course, using your own permit documentation.
Understanding is built and checked through syndicate exercises and discussion rather than a written exam.
