Learn how to safely Sling and Signal in accordance with LOLER and BS 7121
Slinger and Signaller’s play a crucial role within the lifting industry. The role of the Slinger Signaller is to connect lifting accessories to the hook of lifting equipment (crane) and to provide clear instructions in the form of signals or verbal communication to the crane operator while guiding a travelling load from the lifting point to the landing point. Slinger Signallers are required to work in accordance with the relevant legislation and standards, including LOLER 1998 and BS 7121.
Our NPORS Slinger Signaller training course (N402) is designed to provide the necessary knowledge and training qualifications to allow a person to safely Sling and Signal in compliance with the relevant legislation, best practice, and standards.
