Introduction
The goal of the training is to provide participants with essential theoretical knowledge on the safe operation of earthmoving machines, in order to avoid accidents during use.
The correct use of earthmoving machinery is crucial for the safety of both the operator and other personnel involved in the work. Misjudgments can have serious consequences and lead to severe injuries or significant damage to people, equipment, and surroundings. A positive attitude toward safety is therefore emphasized throughout the training.
We use instructors with many years of experience in industries where heavy machinery is actively used. This ensures that you, as a participant, receive quality instruction from a professional familiar with your work tasks.
