Rigging & Maneuvering Guide
Most lifting accidents are caused by poor rigging management (detachment of the load, breaking of slings or accessories, tipping of the load).
Understanding the gestures and checks required during rigging helps reduce the risk for all individuals exposed at the worksite.
Anyone performing rigging tasks must at least know the rules and be able to alert others in case of doubt.
