It guides teams through pre lift planning, including toolbox talks, permits to work, personnel competency, and weather checks. Verify rigging selection and condition, signal communication, power line and overhead hazard clearance, barricades, tag lines, ground conditions, outrigger setup, and equipment inspection records. Confirm PPE compliance, lifting plans and MSRA availability, and third party certifications. Includes subcontractor due diligence and on site safety representative details. Final sign offs capture accountability from lift supervisors and site leadership.
