How can our training course be of benefit to your business?

After being in operation for 27 years, the Abrasive Wheels Regulations were revoked from the 5th December 1998.

The Provision and Use of Work Equipment 1998 Regulations have taken its place

The guidance to Regulation 12 of this law states:

“Providing information and training for workers in the correct handling and mounting of abrasive wheels, (including pre-mounting and storing procedures) is also necessary to reduce the risk of bursting“.

As an employer there is still a legal requirement to train all staff who use and change abrasive wheels.
