Reviewed

Hazards

  • An engineered or otherwise qualified plan describing suspended loads, support points, components, forces, sequence, and controls.

Controls

  • Use verified weights and capacities, account for geometry and dynamics, identify responsibilities and exclusion zones, coordinate structure and power, and document changes before execution.

Personal protective equipment

  • Select task-specific PPE only after hazards and higher-order controls have been evaluated.

Regional considerations

  • Applicable law, permits, collective agreements, venue rules, and qualified-person decisions take precedence.

In practice

Use verified weights and capacities, account for geometry and dynamics, identify responsibilities and exclusion zones, coordinate structure and power, and document changes before execution.
