How do we turn our riggers into true experts? At Lifthing, we strongly believe in the importance of training for our employees. Not only from a safety perspective but also for personal growth and development. We’d love to take you through our training program and show you how we ensure every employee has a strong foundation to build upon.
Safety is paramount: Basic Training for New Employees
Safety first. At Lifthing, safety is our highest priority. That’s why we schedule a series of basic training sessions for new employees almost immediately after they join us. These include:
- VCA Basic Training: A safety training essential for working in industrial environments.
- IS-001: A VCA-certified training on “working with forklifts.”
- IS-005: A VCA-certified training on “working with aerial work platforms.”
- IS-006: A VCA-certified training on “handling critical loads.”
By completing these basic training courses, new employees gain confidence, and their team members can trust that they possess the necessary knowledge and skills to work safely. Moreover, these certifications are required to obtain and maintain strict safety certificates, which we are proud of.
Continuous Learning and Growth
At Lifthing, learning doesn’t stop after the basic training. As employees gain experience and depending on their area of interest, they have the opportunity to follow more specialized courses. This can include working with rotating telehandlers, pick & carry cranes, skidding systems, gantry cranes, and more.
Specific Training for Specific Roles
When employees take on more responsible roles within our team, such as foreman, they take an additional step by obtaining a VCA-Vol certificate. They also receive first aid training, enabling them not only to lead their team but also to ensure the safety and well-being of their colleagues.
At Lifthing, we invest in the development and growth of our employees. Through an extensive training program, we ensure that every team member has the necessary knowledge and skills to work safely and efficiently.
