Train Driver Incident Prevention Course
Competence and safety form the backbone of our business, and our Incident Prevention course reflects the value we place on these elements. RCG’s Incident Prevention course aims to elevate the safety standards of train operations by equipping train drivers with the necessary knowledge and skills to prevent safety of the line incidents.
“The course is designed to incorporate psychometric testing and insights from experienced train driver assessors and safety of the line incident investigators, ensuring that drivers are not only knowledgeable about incident prevention techniques but also possess the right mindset and attitude towards safety.”
