Rigging Resource Centre (RRC)

Built for safety. Designed for industry.

The Rigging Resource Centre (RRC) was developed in response to several fatal incidents involving rigging operations. Originally launched in 2013, the RRC has been recently updated to better support today’s industrial workplaces and evolving rigging practices.

Funding was awarded to the Manufacturer’s Health & Safety Association (MHSA), and in partnership with Cranemasters, we agreed to create and maintain this free, online resource.
The RRC is easily accessible and designed specifically for Albertans working with, or around, rigging equipment.

Our goal is simple: make reliable rigging knowledge accessible and widespread helping reduce incidents, injuries, and fatalities associated with rigging activities.
