Prefabricated Access Suppliers and Manufacturers Association is the authority on all issues involving the design, manufacture, application and safe use of Mobile Aluminium Towers. Actively consulted on standards of legislation the association enjoys a continuing dialogue with the
Health & Safety Executive (HSE), and is involved in European meetings where it represents the British Standards Institute (BSI).

PASMA has become the accepted standard for safety training in Aluminium Access Towers manufactured to BS EN 1004:2004 and promotes a code of practice where successful delegates are certified as competent users following a one-day course.

PASMA training has enjoyed enviable reputation among responsible management and health & safety professionals who seek objective proof of competence for employees engaged in the assembly, inspection and dismantling of Mobile Towers. For many the PASMA seal of approval is the most efficient and sensible method of ensuring they have fulfilled their obligations as client, contractor, health and safety representative or employer in ensuring that all staff involved in this work are competent.

As employers have become more aware of their statutory obligations, the association has responded by establishing approved training providers around the country.

The Work at Height Regulations emphasise the importance of the correct selection and safe use of ladders and steps, to minimise the risks associated with work at height.

If you are going to use ladders or steps on site you will need to be competent in planning of the job, selection of the correct equipment, and the safe use and maintenance of the equipment.

Our course makes the user aware and ensures that they are able to correctly assess the need for the specific access equipment and know how to use and maintain it in accordance with the current regulations.
