Safety in Lifting Outline

 

      I.            Introduction to "Safety in Lifting" (approximately 5 minutes)

                             II.            Video presentation of "Safety in Lifting" (approximately 21 minutes)

                                                     A.            Part 1 discusses proper usage of lifting products (which includes wire rope, nylon web, wire mesh, chain, and fiber rope slings)

                                                     B.            Part 2 discusses inspection techniques of the above products in general. This is followed by a detailed analysis in the "Sling Inspector Training" portion of the session.

                           III.            Post-test issued. These test questions are taken directly from the video presentation. The difficulty level is easy-moderate. (approximately 25 minutes).

                          IV.            Break for preparation of "Sling Inspector Training" (if this option is taken). This portion lasts approximately 2-1/2 hours. Break time is approximately 10-15 minutes.

                             V.            Begins part II- "Sling Inspector Training"

                                                     A.            Detailed discussion of ANSI B30.9 (Slings) standards, paying close attention to "Inspection" guidelines, frequency of inspection, record-keeping, etc.

                                                     B.            Detailed discussion of OSHA 1910.184 (Slings) guidelines. There will be some comparisons mentioned about differences in the OSHA and ANSI requirements. Note that A&B of this section may be interchanged.

                          VI.            Conclusion of discussions, opportunity for questions. Eventually, we will offer a test for the second part of the session, but we do not currently offer a post test for the "Sling Inspector" training portion of the program. If you desire to have that done, we can possibly add it before coming to your facility. It would add approximately another ½ hour to the session time.
