IPAF announces new appointment to Technical & Safety Department
The International Powered Access Federation has announced a key appointment to its Technical & Safety Department. Claude Dubé is named as the organisation’s new UK Technical & Safety Manager, who joins IPAF’s head office in Crooklands, Cumbria.
A Canadian who has lived in the UK for many years, Claude is fluent in English and French and brings to IPAF a wealth of experience garnered across a career working as an engineer for powered access equipment manufacturers in both North America and Europe. He reports to Andrew Delahunt, IPAF’s Director of Technical & Safety.
Andrew Delahunt says: “It’s a pleasure to welcome Claude to this vital role. He brings invaluable expertise and knowhow to the business and will be a huge asset to IPAF and our members.”
Tim Whiteman, CEO & MD of IPAF, adds: “We wish Claude a very warm welcome to the team and look forward to the valuable contributions he will surely make towards key priorities such as the 2019 IPAF Safety Campaign, important new technical and safety guidance, Andy Access safety posters and Toolbox Talks.”
Claude comments: “It’s an honour to join such a widely known and well-respected organisation as IPAF. Safety is the most important concern for everyone who works at height using powered access, and I look forward to working together with my new colleagues to make a positive difference.”
