Are You a Contractor in the Extractives and Mineral Processing Industry?

The extractives and mineral processing industry is committed to reducing accidents and contractors play a crucial part in this.

Contractors are expected to hold a contractor safety passport in order to gain access to sites such as:

  • Quarrying
  • Sand and gravel operations
  • Concrete, cement and asphalt plants

Businesses can be assured that holders of the SPA/MPQC passport have been trained by approved providers and have been tested to an industry recognised standard.

Our SPA / MPQC Quarry Contractor Safety Passport course will provide you with the correct knowledge and certification required to operate within the industry.

What will you learn?

  • How to identify and prevent unsafe behaviour
  • Causes of accidents and prevention
  • Safe driving behaviour
  • Personal responsibilities for safety
  • Use and care of protective equipment
  • How to minimise risks on site as well as carrying out suitable risk assessments and much more

Did you know that the safety passport has recently been extended to become a prerequisite for gaining the MP Connect Card?

Please note that the safety passport is not a measure of competence, but it is something that all contractors operating within these industries are commonly expected to hold.

We can deliver both novice and refresher courses at your site, or you can book onto one of our upcoming open courses.
