COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes practical sessions and demonstration where participants carryout lifting and rigging operations. Theory learnt in the class will be applied using a mobile crane and assorted rigging through hands-on practical sessions. 
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Crane & Rigging Risk Management. It covers the fundamentals of crane operations, types of rigging equipment and factors influencing rigging safety; the common hazards in crane and rigging operations and risk management, risk assessment process, risk control strategies and regulatory requirements and compliance; the standards and regulations for crane and rigging safety including the roles and responsibilities of crane operators, rigging personnel and signalers, safety officers and supervisors; and the hazard identification techniques in crane operations, risk assessment process and job hazard analysis (JHA) for crane and rigging tasks. 
Further, the course will also discuss the site-specific hazard analysis, dynamic risk assessment during operations and documentation and reporting of risks; eliminating hazards through task planning; the safe load handling techniques and rigging equipment inspection and maintenance; the crane stability and load path planning; the clear communication among crew; and the hand signals and the use of radios and other communication devices effectively.
