Description

Welcome to CPCCLDG3001 License to perform dogging. This is a class DG high-risk work licence.

This unit outlines the skills and knowledge needed to safely perform dogging.

Dogging is the application of slinging to move a heavy load. This includes the selection and inspection lifting gear and the direction of a plant operator when the load is not visible.

In the construction industry, and other industries that use cranes or hoists to lift and move loads, dogging work is performed.

After successfully completing the learning activity, the trainer and assessor assesses participants to determine whether they are ready to take their licensing exam, which will be conducted by the HRW Assessor.

Participants who complete the riggers course will be able to use mechanical load shifting equipment to secure, move and place loads.

Participants will be trained on the following areas:
