Note

SAFETY

45 min

The aim of this lesson is to ensure a safe work environment is established for risks to be reduced to as low as reasonably practical in basic lifting operations onshore and offshore.

After having successfully completed this lesson, the participants can:

24) Explain how to mitigate mechanical, chemical, hydraulic and electrical hazards and risks, and how to establish safety when using and maintaining cranes and hoists (Knowledge, intermediate level)

25) Take responsibility for identifying loose items that could potentially become a dropped object (Ability, intermediate level)

26) Act independently to ensure that only approved and appropriate systems (e.g. lifting bags, tool bags, and tethering equipment) are used to prevent dropped objects, in compliance with company specific standards (Ability, intermediate level)
