DOE-STD-1090-2011, DOE STANDARD: HOISTING AND RIGGING (SEP-2011)

DOE-STD-1090, DOE STANDARD: HOISTING AND RIGGING (SEP-2011)., The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Hoisting and Rigging Standard is intended to be used by supervisors, line managers, safety personnel, equipment operators, riggers and other personnel responsible for the safety of hoisting and rigging operations at DOE sites. It may be used as either contract document or as a best practices guide at the site’s or program office’s discretion. The standard invokes applicable OSHA and national consensus standards but also delineates more stringent provisions necessary to accomplish the extremely complex, diversified, critical, and oftentimes hazardous hoisting and rigging work found within the DOE complex.
