Seizing and extending of critical loads – IS-006 – Refresher

Summary

This refresher training updates participants on the latest safety requirements, lifting techniques and best practices for handling critical loads. Critical loads are loads with an unknown centre of gravity, without predefined lifting points, or loads requiring highly precise positioning during lifting operations. Participants refresh their knowledge of risk assessment, lifting equipment inspection, slinging techniques and safe communication to continue performing lifting operations safely and in accordance with applicable safety regulations.

Target Audience

• Employees responsible for lifting and moving critical loads in industrial facilities or workshops who wish to refresh their knowledge and skills
• Personnel coordinating lifting operations involving critical loads
• Riggers and signallers involved in lifting activities
