Navigate the world of work

1.1, 1.3, 1.5-1.8, 2.1-2.3, 3.1, 3.2

• Takes personal responsibility for adherence to legal and regulatory requirements, standards and specifications, and industry practices relevant to a rigging context, and draws attention to any issues that may affect self or others
• Recognises and follows explicit and implicit protocols and meets expectations associated with own role in relation to communication signals

Interact with others

2.3, 1.3

• Cooperates with others as part of familiar routine activities, and contributes to specific activities requiring joint responsibility and accountability when reporting site hazards and communicating with crane drivers and helicopter pilots

Get the work done

1.1-1.8, 2.1-2.3, 3.1-3.3

• Uses a combination of formal, logical planning processes and an increasingly intuitive understanding of the rigging context to identify relevant information and risks, and to identify and evaluate alternative strategies and resources
• Uses systematic, analytical processes in rigging situations, setting goals, gathering relevant information, and identifying and evaluating options for selection of tools and safety equipment, and selection, positioning and safe loading of rigging equipment
• Recognises and addresses some unfamiliar problems of increasing complexity within own scope, recognising when to seek the expertise of others in relation to selection and safe use of tools and equipment, identification of site hazards and site restoration
