  • inspecting lifting equipment e.g. lifting chains, soft slings, FSWR slings and hooks

Dogging work also includes:

  • directing a crane operator in the movement of a load when the load is out of the crane operator’s view by communicating with the crane operator using hand signals, whistles or two-way radios.

Purpose

The program provides participants with the skills and knowledge of how to:

  • Plan and prepare work
  • Undertake thorough inspection of equipment
  • Slinging techniques
  • Calculating safe working loads
  • Perform load mass and weight calculations

You will also be equipped with core skills in relation to fibre ropes and knots, load placement, and directing the movement of loads using crane signals.

Duration

The program is delivered over 5 days consisting of 8 hour / days and is comprised of theory and practical sessions. The program culminates with the HRWL National assessment.
