Our Safety Harness - Inspection course provides delegates
with the required competency to safely and correctly carry out interim and
detailed formal inspections on a range of commonly used fall protection
equipment (FPE), as well as accurately record their findings. This course is also
IPAF-approved.
Delegates will gain the knowledge and competence to design a
scheme of examination and produce compliant inspection reports in line with HSE

and damage, alongside correct FPE disposal procedures.
This course consists of a training room lecture, presentation,
practical exercises, practical assessment, and a multiple-choice assessment
