TOPIC 11- RIGGING, SLINGING & OVERHEAD CRANE OPERATION SAFETY
INTRODUCTION
Health and safety legislation such as the Factories and Machinery Act 1967 has concentrated on the provision and maintenance by an employer of a safe place of work. This has been accomplished by the continuing enforcement of legal requirements applied to machinery and work equipment.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994, in Health and Safety Legislation, brought in a human factors related approach to occupational health and safety, along with the general duty of employers to actually manage health and safety at work.
Workers who are handling overhead cranes to perform their daily task such as to rig, lift and locate items from one place to another, need to trained and assessed in the proper method of handling and inspection of crane and its related parts such as chain hooks, slings, wire ropes before performing any task as to prevent accident and near misses.
This course will create safety awareness and work safely culture with workers who handle overhead cranes.
