Vehicle Banksman
Traffic Marshal training ensures that an organisation meets its legal requirements and reduces the risk of costly accidents when carrying out common, but dangerous, reversing manoeuvres. The job of the banksman is to guide drivers and make sure reversing areas are free of pedestrians.
​
Candidate Requirements:
​
The course is suited to operatives who assist in moving and loading/unloading vehicles in their occupation.
​
Reversing and manoeuvring vehicles are very common on a construction site; they are also very dangerous, especially in confined spaces. This course will help to reduce the risk of accidents relating to large vehicles on site.
Vehicle injuries can be costly to a business; not only are you at risk of potentially fatal accidents, but you also need to be working in line with legislation, which if ignored, can occur legal costs.
This Course Will Enable Delegates To:
​
-
Identify relevant legislation and guidance
-
Correctly demonstrate approved signals
-
Identify hazards associated with signalling operations
-
Explain why effective communication is needed between driver and banksman.
