On the aprons of the region's airports, refuellers, baggage tugs, loaders and marshallers work within metres of jet blast, spinning engines and pressurised aircraft where a small error becomes an expensive or fatal one. This course covers the occupational safety of airside and ground handling work, distinct from aviation regulatory training. It focuses on the ramp hazards, vehicle discipline and communication that protect ground crews.
