3rd Category PPE Course
Third Category Fall Arrest PPE and Use of Lifelines
3rd Category PPE course for the prevention of falls when working at heights.
The training is aimed at workers who have to carry out technically complex work at heights, subject to the risk of falling from a height, and who must use a series of work positioning, restraint and fall arrest PPE to protect against falls from a height. Article 77 of Legislative Decree 81/2008 imposes the obligation of training and practical training on the correct use of category 3 PPE, including fall arrest devices, for all workers who must use them.
The 3rd Category PPE course is carried out together with the Work at Heights course, and includes both a theoretical part and a practical part. The course has a total duration of 8 hours and expires every five years. To update training it is necessary to attend the 3rd Category PPE and Work at Height Update, which lasts 4 hours.
Theoretical and practical tests will be carried out to evaluate the knowledge acquired during the course; a participation/training/qualification certificate will be issued to those who successfully pass them.
