This course has been developed to provide minimum safety training to
infrequent visitors of onshore and offshore wind farms. This standard describes
the requirements for Wind Limited Access that are recommended by the
members of GWO.
Prerequisites
All personnel participating in Wind Limited Access training shall be medically fit
and capable of fully participating. Specifically, the participants must be made
aware of the risks and hazards related to completing this standard.
Objective
The aim of this module is to enable the participants, through theoretical and
practical training, to use basic personal protective equipment, and behave
safety during supervised visits to onshore wind turbine environment.
After having successfully completed this WLA Onshore Module, the participants
will have the ability to act safely and responsibly when using basic personal
protective equipment, follow instructions given by supervisors and behave
safely during supervised visits to onshore wind turbine environments (Ability,
basic level).
The aims of this Offshore Limited Access are, to build upon the skills and
knowledge gained in the onshore module, giving participants the ability to act
safely and responsibly when participating in a supervised visit to an offshore
WTG environment during normal operations.
After successfully having completed this Offshore Limited Access Module, the
participants have the ability to act safely and responsibly during a supervised
visit to an offshore WTG environment and to take limited responsibility for their
own safety at sea and during transfers (Ability, intermediate level)
