Here at Selby Safety Services, we have been creating lift plans for a number of years, giving you the peace of mind that all lifting operations comply fully with the relevant legislation. During the creation of a plan, we examine the risks, requirements of personnel and factors that could arise at any time during the course of the equipment being used.
A lifting plan provides a systematic approach towards planning a lift and ensures that the lifting operation is properly managed. For example, a lifting plan would ensure that the crane is safely deployed and operated, and the lifting crew are clear about their roles and responsibilities.
– Purpose of lift
– Machine/plant carrying out the lift

Lift plans are essential in order to ensure that your operations are utilising the best possible practice guidelines while also adhering to all health and safety expectations and legal requirements, including BS7121 – Code of practice for the safe use of cranes.
