10+

This swing stage inspection checklist helps crews verify the safety and readiness of suspended scaffolds before use. It covers counterweight calculations and secure tie-backs, inspection of wire ropes, thimbles, shackles, and fist grips, and platform assembly including guardrails and toe boards. Hoist condition and overspeed brake checks, rated load confirmation, and electrical setup on dedicated circuits are included. Fall arrest essentials such as independent anchorages, 5000 lb lifelines, rope grabs, and harness inspections are addressed, plus PPE, permits, and site housekeeping.

CHOP Suspended Scaffold Safety Checklist
This CHOP Suspended Scaffold checklist helps crews verify swing stage safety before work begins. Inspect the scaffold rig, including secured counterweights, tie backs, intact wire mesh and debris trays, and emergency descent function. Confirm all crew are trained and equipped with radios for clear communication. Check fall protection: lifelines, retractables, and rope grabs are defect-free and anchored to engineered points, edges are protected, lifelines use proper knots or termination bars, and guardrails, warning lines, or PFAS are in place at leading edges. Ensure tools and materials are tethered, small items stored in zipped bags, and transfers between roof and basket are controlled. Establish a Controlled Access Zone with hard barriers and signage, assign a groundman with radio, and complete required documentation including the daily log book and swing-specific PTP.

Fall Arrest Equipment Checklist
This fall arrest equipment checklist helps workers and supervisors perform pre-use inspections of personal fall protection systems. Verify full body harness webbing, stitching, buckles, grommets, D-rings, and snap hooks; assess shock-absorbing lanyards, rope grabs, lifelines, and anchors for damage, deformation, and correct specifications. Use this form to document findings, ensure compliance, and improve height safety on construction and maintenance sites.

End of Swing Pit Vehicle Checklist
This end of swing pit vehicle checklist helps mining teams complete a fast and consistent closeout at the end of each swing. Use it to confirm the vehicle is cleaned inside and out, consumables are restocked, and fluids such as fuel and washer fluid are topped up. Verify that pre start checks are up to date and submitted, and capture notes and photos of any new or existing damage. Standardize handovers, improve fleet readiness, and reduce downtime across pit operations.
