by JP Gagne, from the Community

30+

This slinging inspection checklist helps teams verify the condition of slings, hooks, shackles, and rigging hardware before lifting. Assess site housekeeping, travelway hazards, PPE compliance, worker training, and hoist operator readiness. Record observations, attach photos, note defects or nonconformances, and assign corrective actions to ensure safe, compliant lifting operations across mining and other heavy industries.

Lifting Plan Template
Plan and document safe lifting operations with this comprehensive Lifting Plan template. Capture site and location details, brief the lift scope, and record load characteristics including weight, center of gravity, and lifting points. Assign key personnel such as the Appointed Person, Lifting Coordinator, and Slinging Signallers. List lifting equipment and accessories with make, model, and working load limits, and verify certificates of conformity or thorough inspection. Specify whether the lift is open or blind, the agreed signalling or communication method, and any temporary works requirements. Define demarcation of the lifting area, use of tag lines, assess ground conditions, and note any nearby hazards. Add a detailed operation description with drawings or photos if needed, then complete sign-off with timestamps.

Lifting Device Quarterly Inspection Checklist
This quarterly inspection checklist covers common lifting devices used in industrial operations, including shackles, chain slings, round slings, steel wire rope slings, and other lifting items. It guides inspectors to verify markings, WLL, certificates, wear, distortion, corrosion, thread condition, and safety latches, with detailed visual check points for links, hooks, pins, couplings, and wire strands. Inspectors can record manufacturer details, serial and plant numbers, dimensions, and service status, plus note defects such as cracks, kinking, chemical or heat damage, and excessive wear. The checklist supports pass/fail decisions and documentation to help ensure equipment is fit for use and that lifting operations remain safe and compliant.
