Safety & Access Ltd have recently supported AECOR International in a partnership to open yet another international CISRS Training facility.

A virtual online audit took place over the Christmas break with Safety & Access, CISRS and AECOR reviewing the facility and resources. The new centre passed its strict criteria audit and is now able to begin training.

The new facility based in Punjab, Northern India is part of a range of international partnerships for Safety & Access primarily serving the oil and gas industries including CISRS accredited training centres in Nepal, Oman, UAE, Malaysia and Qatar.

Scaffmag understands the UK training firm has further plans to open additional facilities in the Caribbean region soon.

 

 

 

Rick Statham Safety & Access Ltd Director said: “We are delighted to be able to announce the opening of a new international CISRS OSTS Training facility in Punjab, Northern India.

This region of India is home to many of the scaffolders that work hard in the Middle East to provide for their families and we are proud to now be able to enhance those job opportunities with internationally recognised training and increased levels of safety whilst adopting industry best practice.”
