Load handling equipment safety is critical in industries using cranes, forklifts, hoists, slings, and lifting gear to move heavy materials efficiently and prevent workplace accidents.

Key safe practices include proper operator training, routine equipment inspection, correct load capacity adherence, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize lifting hazards.

Common risks such as load instability, equipment failure, falling objects, and poor rigging techniques can lead to serious injuries, structural damage, and operational downtime.

These risks can be controlled through preventive maintenance, load securing methods, clear communication signals, and compliance with OSHA and industrial lifting safety standards.

Implementing risk assessment procedures, maintaining safe load limits, and ensuring ergonomic load handling significantly enhance workplace safety and operational reliability.
