Frequently asked questions

What certificate does a rigging, scaffolding & cranes worker need?

Employers ask for a recognised training certificate for your level (rigger 1/2/3, scaffolder, supervisor, inspector). For Gulf projects, third-party certificates approved by the client — for example ARAMCO-approved — are often mandatory.

Is this a good trade for Gulf jobs?

Yes — riggers, scaffolders and crane operators are recruited in large numbers for construction and oil & gas projects across the Gulf, usually on project contracts.
