Course Information
Our course is structured to enable you to comply with the requirements of the WHS/OHS acts in providing training to your employees. This covers the operation of an overhead gantry crane with 3 or less movements. Whilst a High Risk Work Licence is not required to operate these cranes, employers have a duty of care responsibility to provide systems of work and information, instruction and training to their employees who operate them.
A licensed dogger will be required in the use of a bridge or gantry crane where the load is outside the clear view of the crane operator OR when applying slinging techniques for the purposes of lifting a load. Operators of bridge or gantry cranes cannot dog their own load if the situation requires a licensed dogger.
Working in confined spaces covers such a broad range of jobs where you enter places not initially intended for human occupancy or work. This course may lead to employment in the mining, construction and resource industries.
It is recommended, but not compulsory, that this course is repeated every two years to ensure that your skills and knowledge remains current.
