Each year many accidents occur involving lifting equipment and associated slinging applications. Some of these are fatal, and in many cases accidents can be attributed to lack of formal training. It therefore follows that to ensure safe systems of work the first step must be training, the second is for the operators to put their training into practice at all times, developing safe working practices.
