We are supporting the concrete industry by developing new standards and a new qualification.
We would like your thoughts on the development of new standards recognising Concrete Pump Operation.
Concrete Pumping Machinery Operators must have sufficient training to be able to operate high-risk machinery safely. Recent updates to regulations require employers to provide adequate training to meet these regulatory requirements. The New Zealand Concrete Contractors Association, BCITO | Te Pūkenga and industry representatives are working with Waihanga Ara Rau to identify the skill and knowledge needs for this new credential.
Concrete Pump Operation is not currently formally recognised. High risk machinery operators’ safety guidelines are under review, the development of these standards will ensure the Concrete Pumping Industry have a mechanism to train and recognise high risk machinery operators.
We would like your thoughts on the development of the new standards recognising Concrete Pump Operation. To give your feedback please get in touch with Tracy-Lee Burkhart.
