Rigging Safety
Course Length: 30 - 45 minutes
High-impact training
covering the essentials of rigging safety.
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
an accident could occur. 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.

error, and that they are the key to preventing these incidents.
