What is the Mast & Pole Certificate?

The Mast & Pole Certificate is the Swedish health certificate for people who climb and work in masts, poles and towers. Known as the MKA certificate, it is required for work higher than 13 metres.

It is more thorough than an ordinary work-at-height certificate, because it also assesses your ability to handle an emergency high up, where rescue takes time.

Frequently asked questions

Why does it cost more than the others?

The examination is more extensive and takes longer, because the Swedish requirements for work above 13 metres are stricter than for an ordinary certificate.

Can the certificate be used in Denmark?

The Mast & Pole Certificate is a Swedish certificate for Swedish requirements. For Danish or British turbines you need the Wind Medical (EI 3583).

Do I need other certificates at the same time?

It depends on the job. If you work both in Sweden and in the North Sea, it can make sense to take several certificates in one visit. Call us and we will plan it.

Can my employer pay?

Yes. Enter the company name and any PO number when booking, and we will send the invoice directly to the company.
