What are the safety measures for lifting equipment?

Safety measures for lifting equipment include regular inspections and maintenance to ensure equipment is in good working order. Operators must be trained and certified for the specific equipment they are using. Safe lifting practices should be followed, such as never exceeding load limits, using the correct lifting points, and securing loads properly. Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be worn, and clear communication among the lifting team is essential. Additionally, a safe working environment should be maintained, free from obstructions and hazards, and emergency procedures should be in place and known by all involved.
