Scissor Lift Training Winnipeg

Yes…But. It’s not called an Scissor-Lift license. It’s an Scissor-Lift operator certificate. You need to get training and lift operator certification from a qualified aerial lift trainer.  An Scissor-Lift operator certificate is issued once the operator has passed all training and tests. To back up your lift ticket, all documentation of AWP operator training are attached to your records. Your FREE smart card account will store all of that for you in one place.

Scissor lift training is required by law in Canada. Unfortunately, not all companies are aware of this requirement or have the time to train their staff on how to safely operate these lifts.

Scissor lift training can be hard to find.  Especially during peak season for construction when everyone is looking for training.

This is a high risk activity, and I’ve been to many jobsites where the operators are not properly trained or trained at all. The human and liability dangers are real and the costs are not worth the risk.

We offer on-site training in Manitoba to help you get the most out of your lift operators.  We make sure they can safely and correctly use their scissor lift. Our trainer will come out to your site at a time that works best for you, so your team can learn how to use these machines right away without having to take days off work or wait weeks until there’s space available at one of our competitors!

Working at heights is a dangerous and stressful job. It’s important to make sure that your employees are trained in safety procedures before they start working at height.

There are many different types of lifts available for hire, but not all lifts can be used on every site or completed the same tasks. This means that there is a lot of equipment out there which could cause an accident if it isn’t used properly.

We provide safe training for lifting equipment so that you know how to use each piece safely without putting anyone’s life in danger. Our experienced trainers will show you how to operate the lift with confidence, reducing the risk of injury and making sure your projects run smoothly from start to finish!
