Training in Securing Loads
Lifting, Moving, and Setting Down Loads Safely
Slinging loads is a fundamental task in many work environments. Heavy loads can only be safely lifted, moved, and set down again with the proper lifting gear. Incorrect slinging can lead to loads falling, property damage, or even personal injury.
In our "Slinging Loads" training course, participants learn:
-
the effective and safe use of lifting equipment
-
the proper selection of appropriate lifting equipment
-
Identifying potential hazards
-
the relevant legal provisions and background information
The course content is based on DGUV Rule 109-017. Upon successful completion, participants will receive a certificate confirming their training.
