Working From the Hook

TCI Magazine Audio Edition

BY MARK CHISHOLM, CTSP
Whenever I am asked to speak about working with cranes, I always start by discussing the accidents that are happening. This is the foundation for what we should all craft our practices around in order to ultimately avoid the problems others have had. What slings to use, how to attach them, where to make the cut, what cut to use and so on should be derived by the overarching desire to work safely above all else. And sacrificing safety for time will ultimately cost you way more than it saves, including the time you are so desperately striving to capture.
