Increased Demand for Slinger / Signaller Training
ALLMI saw record uptake for its Slinger / Signaller course during the 2024/25 financial year. This was the fourth consecutive year that has seen unparalleled demand for this training, further demonstrating its strong industry standing.
ALLMI has long been promoting the importance of Slinger / Signaller training, raising awareness of the problems that can occur when this is neglected. The Association continues to drive this important message, educating those who believe that putting staff through a lorry loader operator course will provide them with a sufficient level of skill and understanding to act as a slinger – this is not the case; specific training should be undertaken in order to be proficient in this area, and this is a requirement under the Health & Safety at Work Act, PUWER and BS 7121 Part 4.
For information on the Slinger / Signaller course, or training for any other member of the lorry loader lifting team, as well as engineers, managers and instructors, please click here or contact ALLMI.
