Global Wind Organisation — the trade organisation that sets safety training standards for the wind energy sector. The GWO Basic Safety Training (BST) package — covering manual handling, first aid, fire awareness, working at heights, and sea survival — is the primary safety requirement for offshore wind technicians, equivalent to BOSIET in the oil and gas sector. GWO certificates are valid for 2 years (shorter than BOSIET's 4-year validity). More about GWO Basic Safety Training →
