About the Traffic Marshal Course
Our Traffic Marshall Banksman training is designed to help you prevent accidents when doing huge vehicle maneuvers on a construction site.
The course includes demonstrations of the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standard Banksman signals used by bankers (or traffic marshals) across the United Kingdom and Europe, as well as guidance on how to comply with legislation such as the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 and the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
Employers are obligated by the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to ensure that all staff who are required to direct vehicle movements are properly taught and hold the appropriate banksman certification.
Banksman signals must be used at all times while guiding vehicles, whether they are automobiles, HGVs, or other types of vehicles.
Failure to meet these legal training duties may result in prosecution.
By finishing this Traffic Marshal course, you will have a thorough grasp of how to safely regulate traffic while performing manoeuvres, as well as an awareness of the applicable regulations. This will make you an invaluable asset to any business that operates heavy trucks on its grounds.
