About This Course
Dumpers are a common sight on Irish construction sites and are frequently involved in serious and fatal accidents. Operators must hold a valid CSCS card as evidence that they have received adequate training to operate a dumper safely.
Our CSCS Dumper programme covers the safe operation of both forward-tipping and swivel-skip dumpers. Participants receive theoretical instruction covering legislation, machine components, and safe operating techniques, followed by practical training and assessment.
Successful participants receive their CSCS card for dumper operation.
