Competent application
PA1 and PA6 capability where treatment is required.
Where pesticide or herbicide application forms part of the agreed programme, an appropriately qualified team member is allocated to the work.
Qualified work within a controlled programme
Environ has a City & Guilds NPTC PA1 and PA6A-qualified operative for professional pesticide work using hand-held applicators.
Not every grounds operative needs to apply pesticides. Work requiring these qualifications is completed by an appropriately certificated team member and recorded as the contract requires.
