Crane and lifting operations
Most lifting incidents don’t start with the crane. They start on the ground, with a sling rated for the wrong load or a hand signal that meant one thing to the dogman and another to the operator. If your team rigs, slings, directs crane lifts or lifts loads with mobile plant, December is a good time to make sure their skills match the work before the end-of-year rush.
