Solar PV is booming – let’s not forget about safety!
17 November 2011
There is no question that 2012 will prove to be the year that launches the UK into new age of domestic renewable energy.
It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of installations will take place in 2012, involving more than amount a 10,000 installation engineers. There is also every reason to believe this number will increase as more customers take advantage of the available feed in tariffs. The market is booming at an exponential rate and whilst this is undoubtedly an exciting time for the industry we need to take stock of what is important. Contractor’s safety and wellbeing.Let’s make no bones about it, the activity involved when installing solar panels is complex and potentially highly dangerous. The next job can be very different from the last and represent a unique set of challenges each time. We are committed to equip our delegates with the capability and confidence to face these challenges and ensure every install reduces the chances of injury.
Our goal at CSS Worksafe is simply to ensure we do what we can to make sure you go home in one piece after your day at work. To that end we have developed what is being described as “the most comprehensive, effective and relevant work at height training programme” in the market today. For the course we have invested in a brand new training structure dedicated to Solar PV.
