In-house Training
Peter Pallett is the recognised course provider in the United Kingdom on temporary works in construction. Although he has reduced his workload he has NOT retired: like many others nearing retirement, his pension suffered a 28% drop in October 2008 - so he has to keep working, at least till his pension recovers!
