   Passage 1: What GWO BST is

   The Global Wind Organisation (GWO) is an industry body of wind turbine manufacturers and operators that sets shared training standards so a safety qualification earned with one employer is accepted by the next. Its Basic Safety Training (BST) standard is the entry qualification expected of most people working on wind turbines, onshore or offshore, and is composed of five modules — First Aid, Manual Handling, Fire Awareness, Working at Heights, and (for offshore work specifically) Sea Survival — each combining theory and practical assessment.

   Passage 2: Validity and offshore add-on

   GWO BST modules are typically valid for two years before refresher training is required. The Sea Survival module, covering vessel transfer techniques and survival at sea, is the offshore-specific addition to the otherwise generic onshore/offshore curriculum; GWO training records are recognised by wind employers internationally, which is the point of a shared standard rather than a company-specific course.
