Lifting and Rigging Training

Lifting and rigging activities involve high-risk operations where even a small oversight can lead to severe injuries, equipment failure, or major workplace accidents. From incorrect load handling to improper gear selection, the challenges are significant — and so is the need for proper training.

At the Center for Safety Education Foundation, our Lifting and Rigging Training Programme equips your workforce with essential knowledge, practical skills, and safety awareness to execute lifting operations confidently and without risk.

What we cover

Our training programme is structured to ensure participants understand every critical aspect of safe lifting and rigging operations: 

  • Load weight calculation and center of gravity assessment 
  • Types of lifting equipment: slings, shackles, hoists, cranes, hooks, and more 
  • Selection, inspection & maintenance of rigging gear 
  • Safe rigging practices and proper load attachment techniques 
  • Hand signals, communication protocols, and coordination 
  • Lifting plan preparation and hazard identification 
  • Understanding load charts and equipment limitations 
  • Preventing common lifting failures and rigging mistakes 
  • Emergency procedures for lifting-related incidents 
  • Regulatory standards and compliance requirements 

Each module integrates theory with hands-on demonstrations, enabling participants to apply safe rigging techniques in real-world scenarios.
