CONTROL OF MECHANICAL LIFTING OPERATIONS (Refer Flowchart of Lifting Operation on Page 6) The Managers of Project/Operations is responsible for the identification of non-routine mechanical lifting requirements. i) Non Routine Lifts Lifts identified as requiring formal control arrangements will be agreed with the Client Representative and will be subject to an engineering and safety assessment by the Managers of Project/ Operations who will formulate a specific lifting plan. The lifting plan will be agreed between the Managers of Project/Operations, Client Representative and the Safety Officer / Safety Supervisor before adoption. The plan will include the name of the person responsible for the lift and the implementation of the plan.(Refer Lifting Plan on Page 7 & Pre-Lifting Operation Checklist on Page 8 ) ii) Routine Lifts Routine mechanical lifting, are those lifts within the capability of existing yard plant and able to be carried out by a single crane. Trained and certified crane operators shall be employed for the same. A rigger shall assist the operator to carry out the lifting safety.
1.1
Lifting Equipment Responsibilities with regard to the use and maintenance of lifting equipment shall be as follows: i) The Material Controller shall provide slings, shackles, wire ropes etc. with manufacturer safety certificates and all equipment shall be checked by the user each time prior to use. (Refer Lifting Equipment Record ) ii) The person in-charge shall arrange for all cranes to be inspected annually and for all lifting equipment to be re-certified by qualified P.E. The crane operator and lifting supervisor shall carry out/organise for all the necessary maintenance work. The operator shall carry out daily inspection of crane as per a given check list and sign on the checklist. This record shall be available in this file. .(Refer Crane Operator Checklist Format on Page ) iii) Supervisors and foremen shall be responsible for ensuring that all lifting equipment and accessories used by them is in good working order, carries an identification mark and the current colour code, and has adequate capacity i.e., Safe Working Load Limit (SWL) for the crane. (Refer Lifting Equipment Colour Code on Page ) The Lifting Supervisor and project/operations supervisors shall ensure that unless designed to do so, cranes are not used as load carriers to move loads. Supervisors, foremen and crane operators are responsible within their respective scope for ensuring that cranes are fully able to undertake each lift and that any faults, including faults to any safety equipment/apparatus fitted to the crane are reported to the Lifting Supervisor without delay. These same people are jointly responsible for ensuring that a faulty crane is removed from service immediately and that confirmation of repair to full serviceability is obtained from the Lifting Supervisor before the plant recommences work.

A maintenance program shall be required and implemented effectively for the crane, and the maintenance record shall be kept in the cabin. The operator shall carry out daily inspection and testing of crane No lifting operation shall be performed when the load (stationary or otherwise) exceeds the safe working load. The lifting supervisor must verify that the strength of lifting gears and equipment are adequate and their certified SWL (Safe Working Load) are in line with the load they bear. The lifting operation area and other areas with potential hazard / danger must be cordon off to prevent access for all unauthorized personnel. Only authorized personnel involved in the lifting shall be allowed in the lifting operation area. Safety measures shall be taken to address any potential hazards and / or danger that may arise out of the lifting operation. Weather forecasts shall be monitored before and during lifting work. No lifting shall be performed during abnormal conditions like wind speed is too high, poor lighting, obscured view due to raining, etc. The operator shall be able to observe the load continually during lifting. The loads shall be raised vertically to avoid swinging during lifting. Whenever required the load shall be controlled by means of tag lines to prevent the load from
turning or swinging.

OBJECTIVE To establish Safe Work Practices (SWPs) for known hazardous activities, so that such works are carried out safely. DESCRIPTION Safe work practices can minimise, if not eliminate the risk of an accident. This element contains well-defined procedures and instructions to carry out specific works, tasks and equipment operations safely. SCOPE OF APPLICATION Safe work Practices shall be established for other hazardous work or work processes as and when required. The SWPs serve as a guide. The list of SWP shall include but not be limited to the following:3.1.1. 3.1.2. 3.1.3. 3.1.4. 3.1.5. 3.1.6. 3.1.7. 3.1.8. 3.1.9. 3.1.10. 3.1.11. 3.1.12. 3.1.13. 3.1.14. 3.1.15. 3.1.16. 3.1.17. 3.1.18. 3.1.19. 3.1.20. 3.1.21. 3.1.22. 3.1.23.
