Industrial work??

[manutd4life]

Hi, ive been in the commercial side for about 6 years now and im getting sick of the low rates and hardly any decent jobs out there, by the way im self employed. I am lookinhg to go into the industrial side of things. What sort of things am i going to experience as new things? I'll give a quick insight in to what stuff ive done in the commercial side, all metal munching, swa's upto 185mm, section boards, switch gear and control panels etc etc. I am thinking of doing my H&S passport but cant afford the compex as yet so can i get away with not having the compex for now?

cheers

Compex is mostly on required on hazardous work areas i believe (petrochem,gas and filling stations and the like)

As for new what you've done is more or less industrial apart from machines.

What's wrong with that? Haha

Cheers, gonna have to have a good sit down and try and read this tomorrow. Is there a possibility I could get thrown straight into this on my first job?

Yes!

Once you are working on machines, 7671 does not apply.
