The Importance of Operator Training

It’s the employer’s responsibility to ensure that all staff using waste baling or compacting machinery has received adequate operator training and that each individual is competent in the correct and safe operation.

Every business should also keep training records that verify that your employees are competent to safely operate the machinery as well as assessing the frequency of refresher training. We offer training for both new and existing operators.

High Quality Training from Kenburn

We are committed to ensuring the highest standards of safety and efficiency in waste management. Recognising the critical importance of skilled operation, we place a strong emphasis on providing comprehensive training for waste baler and compactor usage. Our dedication to this cause is evident in our unique offering: with every installation and commissioning of a baler or compactor, we provide an exclusive training session for up to three employees, at no extra cost.

This training is meticulously designed to equip your team with the necessary knowledge and skills for the safe and effective operation of the waste handling equipment. Our experienced trainers guide each participant through the nuances of operating these machines, ensuring they understand all safety protocols and operational procedures. Upon completion, each participant receives an individual certificate, serving as a testament to their proficiency in safely managing the machinery. This approach not only enhances the safety of your operations but also contributes to the overall efficiency and sustainability of your waste management processes.

Refresher Training of Waste Compactors and Balers

Our refresher training is designed for both infrequent operators and those needing to correct bad habits. Moreover, we cater to staff changes by offering certified training for new users, tailored to meet your specific needs.

Understanding that accidents can occur due to improper use or maintenance of waste handling machinery, our training emphasises safety and correct operation practices. This focus is in response to HSE findings highlighting a significant number of accidents related to waste balers and compactors. By providing expert training, Kenburn aims to prevent these incidents, ensuring a safer workplace for all.

Your Legal Responsibility

As an employer, you hold the legal duty to evaluate and mitigate risks associated with any workplace equipment. Under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER), it is imperative that all equipment is apt for its intended purpose, maintained in a safe condition, and operated exclusively by individuals who have received sufficient training, information, and instruction.

This responsibility extends to ensuring the ongoing safety and suitability of the equipment, encompassing regular maintenance and adherence to established safety protocols. It is crucial to uphold these standards to maintain a safe working environment and comply with legal obligations.
