The global shift toward renewable energy has opened doors for new careers, especially in the offshore wind industry. But before stepping into this exciting field as skilled and technical person, one essential requirement stands between you and your next opportunity: the GWO Basic Safety Training (BST).

If you’re planning to work on wind turbines or offshore installations, this internationally recognised certification ensures you’re trained, competent, and ready for the demands of the job.

At Falcon Safety Services, one of Malaysia’s GWO approved training centres, we deliver the GWO Basic Safety Training as an entry ticket for real-world offshore challenges.


🔹 What is GWO Basic Safety Training?

The Global Wind Organisation (GWO) developed the Basic Safety Training (BST) standard to ensure that every wind industry professional can work safely and respond effectively in emergencies.

The course combines theory, hands-on practice, and real-life scenarios, covering the five core safety modules:

  1. Working at Height: Learn how to use harnesses, lanyards, and rescue equipment safely when climbing wind turbines.
  2. Manual Handling: Prevent workplace injuries with proper lifting, carrying, and ergonomics techniques.
  3. Fire Awareness: Understand fire causes, prevention, and how to use firefighting equipment during emergencies.
  4. First Aid: Gain life-saving skills to handle injuries or medical incidents until professional help arrives.
  5. Sea Survival: Experience simulated offshore conditions, learning how to react in water-based emergencies.

Together, these modules provide a strong foundation for anyone entering the wind energy or offshore industry.
