TARGET AUDIENCE

Employees who need to lift and move critical loads and/or coordinate these works on a company property in installations, workshops or warehouses when carrying out lifting work.

Are considered a critical load:

• Loads with an unknown center of gravity, which are bulky in shape or size and which do not have fixed defined stop points
• Loads that need to be precisely positioned and therefore precisely applied must be attached exactly correctly
• Loads that are taken over or in which there is an interaction between crane and building or between crane and crane
• Loads that need to be lifted with several non-stationary lifting lifting equipment.

For employees that work in (petro)chemical industry, this exam must be taken in a recognized center.

TARGET

Learning how to do it effectively and safely:

• Rigging and moving loads
• Pointing out loads by communicating with the operator of a lifting equipment

NOT WORDS, BUT ACTIONS!

• Theory introduction (30%) with many practical exercises (70%)
• Theory exam
• Practical exam
• Every successful participant receives the Besacc-VCA IS-006 diploma: rigging critical loads
• The diploma is personal-related and indicates the high-risk task the participant has passed.
  
• The diploma is valid for 5 years and is registered online at http://besacc.epyc.eu/diploma.

WHAT DOES THE LAW SAY?

• Mobile self-propelled work equipment can only be used by workers who have received the appropiate training for the safe operation of these work equipment (Codex book IV, title 3)
• A safety function is considered to be any work station where work equipment is used, where motor vehicles, cranes, overhead cranes, hoists of any kind are operated. (Codex book I, title 4)
• The purpose of safety and health signs is to draw attention in a fast and easily understandable way to objects activities and situations, which may cause certain dangers.(Codex book III, title 6, annexes 1-9)
