This intensive 8-hour program is designed specifically for the busy construction supervisor. It consolidates four critical areas of safety regulation into a single, streamlined course, removing the need for multiple separate training days. Participants will gain a practical, working knowledge of the regulatory requirements for Work at Height, Confined Spaces, and Aerial Work Platforms (MEWPs).

Crucially, this course goes beyond simple compliance. It integrates essential leadership and human factors training, equipping supervisors with the communication, conflict resolution, and team-building skills necessary to manage their crews effectively. This unique blend of "Psychology and Regulations" provides supervisors with the tools to not only ensure safety but also to foster a productive and cohesive work environment.
