Quigley Contract Lift Services
A team of highly experienced individuals committed to offering
their clients a hassle free lifting and transportation service
fronts QCLS. Trained in Appointed Persons duties and abiding
by LOLER 1998
(Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998)
and also BS7121 guidelines. These individuals will plan, supervise
and execute the lifting operation safely and efficiently every
time.
This service is best suited to clients with limited experience
in modern day lifting operations. Guidelines and regulations
are changing at a fast pace these days and unless you work
in lifting operations on a regular basis it is difficult to
keep up to date.
Companies should consider that every lifting operation is
governed by the same regulations so if the contract lift option
is not taken and crane hire only is then the user is still
committed to providing an Appointed Person and other certified
labour themselves which should also be backed by a risk assessment
and method statement. We often find that customers opt for
the services of QCLS because overall it proves to be more
economical than providing labour and insurance from their
own in house resources. In the main our contract lifting services
are provided as per The Construction Plant Association Standard
Conditions for a Contract for the Lifting and Movement of
Goods Involving Crane Operation. As part of these conditions
insurance covers are also provided which provide extra peace
of mind when using this service. At the end of the day if
your own employees get things wrong the financial and legal
penalties can be very severe.
As standard practice QCLS will advise on correct slinging
methods and types of lifting tackle to be utilised, correct
crane selection and positioning. It is also common place for
QCLS to organise road closures, arrange traffic and pedestrian
protection and liase with relevant authorities where required,
in fact the QCLS team will handle just about anything that
has anything to do with the lifting operation.
