Q

Which statement(s) is/are TRUE concerning crane cargo operations?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Safe working load (SWL) and why you must know the rated capacity of lifting gear (cranes, spreaders, slings). • Hierarchy of controls in safety: equipment protection vs personnel safety priorities. • Personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements for cargo handlers / longshoremen during crane operations.

💭 Think About

• Look at each option and ask: is this a standard, general safety principle that would apply to every crane cargo operation, regardless of ship or port? • Which items, if ignored, could immediately create a life‑threatening situation for people working under or near the load? • Is there any option that sounds like it might only apply in special cases, or are they all consistent with basic lifting and safety rules you’ve learned?

✅ Before You Answer

• For each choice (A, B, C), check whether it matches common crane safety rules you would see in any professional port or ship operation manual. • Verify whether personnel safety is always considered more important than preventing equipment damage or schedule delays. • Consider whether regulations and company policies typically require PPE for all cargo handlers when crane operations are in progress.
