Mobile Access Tower (PASMA)

Introduction

Many workplaces will insist on seeing your PASMA photocard before you will be allowed to assemble, move or dismantle mobile scaffold towers. The new Work at Height Regulations require that the installation or erection of Mobile Access Towers should only be carried out by, or under the supervision of, a competent person. Such a person is someone considered to have training, technical knowledge or experience as may be appropriate having regard to the nature of the activity. PASMA qualifications are proof of competence.
