Khansaheb MEP hosted double celebrations at its facility in Jebal Ali as its training centre turned 5 years old and the business clocked 4 million man-hours LTI free.
Since its inception in October 2015, the centre as trained over 650 operatives on 12-day course cycles spanning 2 phases. The curriculum includes subjects related to HSE and Electrical, Plumbing and HVAC systems including all aspects from basic measurements to Testing and Commissioning.
In October 2017, Khansaheb MEP started its Frontline Supervisor training for senior staff with 47 members completing both the 2-day and 1-day refresher training course which finished in 2019. After each course, a presentation and feedback session was organised to develop future courses.
It is now looking to launch the third phase of its training program which is aimed at positioning its training at a level not seen in the UAE. The operatives going through this 6-day course will be trained on Health and Safety, accurate measurements and scales, waste management and innovative techniques for improving HSE, quality and productivity.
The celebration also marked the achievement of 4 million man-hours LTI free for Khansaheb MEP. Khansaheb’s ‘Aim to be Accident Free’ program has inculcated a safety culture in the organisation that all its business units are successfully contributing towards.
Speaking on the occasion, Khansaheb MEP General Manager David Duffy said, “People development is an important pillar of our strategy. We are very proud of what our training teams have achieved over the last 5 years and the attainment of 4 million man-hours LTI free across the division is a testament to the success of our training programs and the commitment of our people towards HSE.”
