Overview
What this RAVS document does
Slings, hooks, and rigging hardware hold suspended loads over workers, and a failed component or an overloaded sling can drop a load without warning. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor rigs with competent workers and inspected gear.
This document states your company's rigging program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: responsibilities, competent riggers, rated capacity and load limits, inspection, removal from service, and safety latches. Each point ties back to The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a rigging answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For this element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written rigging program with purpose and scope
- Rigging assembled, used, and dismantled under a competent worker's supervision
- The rated capacity and the load limits for rigging used for loads and for workers
- Visual inspection of rigging before use on each shift
- Removal from service of damaged slings and hooks against rejection criteria
- Safety latches or other means where a dislodged hook could injure a worker

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Saskatchewan contractors whose hiring clients require the rigging element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. It applies to crane, rigging, construction, oil and gas, and industrial companies whose workers attach and move suspended loads. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags rigging, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the rigging review the first time
- Use the Saskatchewan version. The document is written to the Saskatchewan OHS legislation, which is what a Saskatchewan hiring client expects.
- Inspect rigging before each shift. The document states rigging is visually inspected before use on each shift. A hiring client audit will ask how those checks are recorded.
- Apply the rejection criteria. The document states damaged slings and hooks are removed from service against defined rejection criteria. A reviewer expects that to be followed.
