The discussion I am having with a colleague is about the need to have some form of formal training plan and a formal pre-use check system for the use of basic lifting equipment. The equipment is basically a pivotting arm,counter-balanced workshop crane, and a manual scissor lift table capable of lifting up to 500kgs (motors etc). Your advice would be appreciated.
