Our Vehicle Marshal Training Course is designed to train delegates in banksman vehicle control duties. It will make delegates aware of their legal responsibilities and take them through a safe system of work, from meeting and briefing the incoming driver to determining the route to be followed and then guiding the driver safely to the intended location.

This is a subject matter that is being focused on more and more within the logistics and construction industries as companies look to avoid unnecessary onsite accidents.

Boss Training’s Vehicle Marshal Training Course covers various topics related to traffic management, workplace safety, and communication. For example, your roles and responsibilities as a vehicle marshal, site-specific hazards and risks, communication and signalling, and emergency procedures.

In addition, the training course will also cover relevant laws and regulations related to traffic management on-site and how to ensure you comply.
