NEN 3840 Training
Certification Matters. In high voltage, the stakes are high. Every decision, every action, can have far-reaching consequences for the success of a project and for the safety of those involved.
NEN 3840 Training
This training is based on the Dutch NEN 3840 standard, but goes further by translating the standard into Reynard’s daily work practices, project conditions and safety expectations. Participants learn how to recognise risks, understand responsibilities, apply safe working procedures and meet the level of safety expected from Reynard specialists. Dutch standard as the foundation. Reynard standards as the daily practice.
