Get Up Safe is a unique heave compensated lifting solution that has been specifically designed to transfer personnel between Crew Transfer Vessels and the main external platform of an offshore wind turbine. 

GUS systems are activated and operated from the CTV via a wireless remote control and use integrated sensors to monitor vessel movement and instruct the hoist to take-in or pay-out line to maintain a safe distance between the person being transferred and the vessel deck.

The aim of the Manual Handling Initial Training is to enable participants, through theoretical and practical training, to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries for wind technicians in the wind industry and enable participants to perform their tasks and activities in the safest possible way when working in a wind turbine environment.

After having successfully completed Manual Handling Initial Training, the participants will have the ability to take responsibility for the use of essential manual handling principles to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injury when performing physical tasks and activities in the wind industry.

The aim of this training is to enable participants, through both theoretical and practical training, to use personal protective equipment, work safely at height, and perform basic rescue operations from height in a remote wind turbine environment.

Training in accordance with this Basic Safety Training will enable participants to support and care for themselves and others working in the industry by possessing the knowledge and skills of first aid, working at height, manual handling, fire awareness, sea survival and in case of an emergency, to be able to evacuate, rescue and provide appropriate first aid to casualties. 

The aim of the First Aid Initial Training is to enable participants, through theoretical and practical training, to recognize signs and symptoms of life threating situations and administer safe and effective first aid in the wind turbine industry/WTG environment in order to save lives and prevent further injury, until the casualty can be handed over to the next level of care.

The aim of this training is to enable the participants to prevent fires, make appropriate judgements when evaluating a fire, manage evacuation of personnel and ensure all are safely accounted for in the event of an unmanageable fire. If the incident is judged to be safe, the participants should be able to efficiently extinguish an initial fire by using basic handheld firefighting equipment.

The aims of Sea Survival Initial Training are to give, by theoretical and practical training, participants the ability to act safely and responsibly and to take the correct preventive actions in all aspects of offshore operations from shore to installation vessel (or WTG) and vice versa. This is both during normal operations and in an offshore wind energy environment emergency.

The EFA-R Training Standard shall enable participants to support and care for others working in the industry by possessing the knowledge, skills, and ability of enhanced first aid. The aim of this EFA-R module is to refresh current EFA skills through theoretical and practical training so that participants can administer safe and effective enhanced first aid in the wind industry.
