Physical Fitness Is Important For Electricians

By : Martin Hofschroer

People on electrical courses must ensure they are fully fit before they become a qualified tradesman.

The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) have said that good physical fitness is crucial for electricians as some electrical work may be strenuous and require a degree of strength.

Electricians must also be confident with heights as they may find themselves working high up and having perfect colour version is also essential due to the variety of different coloured wires in the job.

Research by the Electrical Contractors' Association (ECA) has revealed that a significant number of their membership is keen to stay in shape during their working day by eating healthy food.

The ECA discovered that the most popular snack of choice during the working day was a piece of fruit with 30 per cent of electricians claiming that they like to get one of their five-a-day in while on the job.

British electricians favour tea as their favourite drink with 67 per cent claiming the cuppa as their top beverage while 18 per cent wanted instant coffee and a tiny one per cent were keen on herbal tea as their work time refreshment.

David Pollock, ECA Group CEO, said: "This change in snack choices reflects our electricians' interest in staying in shape. Everyone wants to be healthy today and electricians are no different.

"This can only be a positive thing, proving that our workforce is keeping with the times, not just in terms of their work."

The IET also advised that electricians must be practical by nature as the job requires them to be good with their hands and they must be able to use a variety of tools in order to do their work effectively.

Being methodical is an advantage because an electrician must be able to follow safety guidelines and procedures while they are also expected to be independent as many are self employed and will have to work on their own and unaccompanied.
