Petrol Forecourt Safety Passport

Petrol Forecourt Safety Passport Training

The SPA Petrol Retail Passport is the product of a unique collaboration between the UK Petroleum Industry Association (UKPIA) and the Safety Pass Alliance.

Working on petrol filling station forecourts presents some special issues, not least the safety of the public. For this reason SPA, UKPIA and its members have developed the Petrol Retail Passport Course to ensure that workers in the industry and particularly contractors working on forecourts are trained to meet specified standards.
