1.2 Staff qualification and training
The staff responsible for operation, maintenance, inspection and assembly must have the respective
qualification for carrying out these works. Field of responsibility, competence and the supervision of
staff have to be exactly regulated by the user. If your personnel do not have the necessary knowledge,
they have to be trained and instructed. If necessary, this can be done by the manufacturer/supplier on
behalf of the user. Furthermore, the user must ensure that the contents of the operating instructions
are fully understood by the staff.
The society of welding institutes (GSI: Gesellschaft der Schweißtechnischen Institute mbH) offers the
appropriate training courses for your personnel.
