Our Rigging Safety
Video Program points out to employees that over 90 percent of rigging-related
accidents are caused by human error... and that they are the key to preventing
these incidents. We have all heard the phrase... "A chain is only
as strong as its weakest link". When it comes to crane operations,
Rigging can often be that "weak link". How a load is attached
to a crane can make the difference between a successful lift and an unfortunate
accident. And Rigging-related accidents can often be deadly, due to the
large and heavy loads that are lifted. A small miscalculation, or a brief
moment of inattention, and tragedy could strike. Once a load falls not
much can be done to stop it, and there is little time for people to move
safely out of the way. A coworker can be injured or killed, and expensive
equipment and cargo could be damaged or destroyed... even the crane itself.
The Video includes information on physical and mental
preparation, personal protective equipment, equipment inspection, hazard
assessment, slings and hitches, hand signals, load angles, and more. The
Video Training Program comes with a comprehensive Leader's Guide,
reproducible Scheduling & Attendance Form, Employee Quiz, Training
Certificate and Training Log.
