The Forklift Jib Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) is designed to help businesses implement safe practices when using a forklift jib. It outlines detailed steps so operators are well-prepared and aware of the necessary precautions for safe operation.

It covers the hazards (equipment failure, moving objects, falling objects and manual handling), the PPE to wear, operator training and precautions, maintenance under LOTO procedures, a daily pre-operational inspection, and the steps for attaching and using the jib, handling the load and finishing the job.

A training and induction register records that operators are trained and competent in their tasks.
