WHAT IS DOGGING?
There are two main aspects of dogging. These are:
- Directing the operator of a hoist or crane when they do not have a line-of-sight on a load they are shifting, lifting and moving
- The techniques of slinging that are used for securing and moving a load – this includes the inspection and choice of the lifting equipment used.
WHO NEEDS A DOGMAN TICKET?
If you’re working with – or intend to work with – cranes of any type, you should have a dogman licence. This includes workers in the resources and/or construction sectors who may be required to dog loads with loadshifting equipment.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DOGGING AND RIGGING?
Work that is considered “dogging” is defined under the terms of the Dogging High-Risk Work (HRW) Licence. The definitions largely govern slinging work that requires judgment of what techniques, equipment and machinery is suitable.
Rigging is a more general term and covers the activities of moving, placing or securing loads using mechanical load-shifting equipment. However, it does not include the operation of that equipment. Riggers may also erect, set-up and dismantle cranes or hoists.
HOW LONG DOES THE DOGMAN TICKET LAST?
Once you have a dogman licence, you must renew it every 5 years. Renewal requires paying the appropriate WorkSafe Australia fees.
HOW MUCH DOES A DOGMAN TICKET COST?
