Fatal Risk Critical Control Verification - Lifting

by Gerald Visagie, from the Community

Ensure critical controls are in place for crane and lifting work in mining. This checklist guides verification of worker competency, lift plans and risk assessments, workplace inspections, rigging selection and balance, equipment capacity and safety devices, current tagging of chains, slings and shackles, exclusion zone setup and demarcation, powerline clearance and permits, use of tag lines, continuous operator attendance, communication to affected personnel, and sign-off. If any fatal risk control is not effective, stop the task and reassess.

Fatal Risk Lifting Critical Controls Checklist
This Fatal Risk Lifting checklist supports verification of critical controls for crane and rigging operations. It guides prework preparation, including housekeeping, workplace exams, training confirmation, and emergency procedures. The checklist verifies operator and rigger competency and fitness for duty, confirms a documented lift plan, rigging suitability and balance, communication, designated roles, and use of tag lines. It covers mechanical integrity checks for cranes and lifting gear, inspection tags, and safety devices, and defines safe drop zones, barricading, signage, powerline clearances, permits, and lockout where required. Each item is assessed as Controlled, At Risk, or Not Applicable to ensure hazards are identified and work is paused until protections are in place.
