The GWO Slinger Signaller Training module is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to safely perform slinging and signalling activities during lifting operations in the wind industry.
The training focuses on simple and routine lifts carried out in accordance with an approved lift plan and known hazards.
