In the world of hoisting within construction, industry and logistics, there are various training, courses and courses for employees in charge of lifting loads. Nevertheless, unpleasant incidents that could perhaps have been prevented occur with great regularity. Possible causes of these incidents are high work pressure, insufficient knowledge of lifting equipment and its safe use. Insufficient instruction ‘on the job’ can also lead to unpleasant incidents. We have developed a practical training course for this purpose. This can also serve as demonstrable instruction that every employer should give to his employees.

We have useful training with the following topics and connection to practice:

• Stability, stamping pressure and substrate
• Machine capacity
• Making lifting plans
• Control machine including paperwork
• Control hoisting equipment
• Use of lifting equipment, utilisation factors, workload factors and reduction factors
• Communicating, giving directions
• Practical hoisting
