Lifting and rigging activities are considered high-hazard tasks in industries. Highly skilled & trained employees are engaged in such activities. It is essential to understand appropriate rigging methodologies and techniques, but also the other critical hazards associated with this type of lifting and rigging work task.

 

1. Use reflective jacket for all personnel involved. All workforce/employees/personnel in a work area where a lifting and rigging operation is being conducted should be essentially well trained on the lift & rig work scope, associated various hazards, and rectification and mitigation of the task.

2. Ensure the lifting tools & tackles are having valid competent authority certification. Have a documented rigging and lifting plan. An authentic and proper lift plan ensures the required rigging, angles of equipment, lifting capacities/capabilities and integrity, etc. are thought about before the start of the lift or rigging work.

 

3. Do the site survey in advance. Plan the travel area and potential lines of fire before the lift. This helps to avoid striking other objects or having to move objects or equipment after the load is already in the air.

 

4. Inspect all rigging before using it for a lift. Frequently evaluate, observe and closely check the strength and capability/integrity of the lifting machinery and associated devices throughout the day if there is more than one lift.

5. All rigging operations/activity should be essentially and properly maintained and stored after lifting operations are accomplished. Well-planned, secure, safe, and appropriate storage always assist to prevent the rigging from being damaged or any other deterioration.

 

6. Barricade the lifting area. Always keep and maintain a safe distance and keep away from the load. Try to have a plan and apparent aim of tackle to utilize the tag lines or push sticks to make sure well and proper space from the load being lifted or rigged. This will enhance the safety of all areas including assets, machinery, environment, and personnel involved in the lifting and rigging activity.
