High risk course
CPCCLRG3001 - Licence to perform rigging basic level

Introduction

Basic Rigging is the second step in becoming a rigger after completing the dogging course. In addition to being able to complete all the tasks of a Dogman, a licenced Basic Rigger is responsible for moving plant and equipment, erecting steel and material hoists, installing static lines and safety nets, erecting mast climbing personnel platforms, and installing and maintaining perimeter safety screens, shutters and crane loading bay platforms. This course will cover the following aspects:

Plan task | Who do you need to talk to or work with on this task? What equipment is required? What is the load that needs to be moved?
Select and inspect equipment | Have you checked the slinging equipment? How do you know what equipment is required?
Set up task | How do you establish communication with other people involved in the task? Have you identified any hazards and put controls in place?
Undertake basic rigging activities | How do you install static lines? Has the equipment been moved correctly?
Complete task | How do you check for any damage to the equipment once it has been used? How does the equipment need to be stored after use?
