WH&S has advised on its website, that as from August 30 an employer must not allow a person in charge of and/or operating a mobile crane (slewing/non-slewing), to also undertake their own dogging work or supervise a trainee dogger, even if the operator is also a licensed dogger. |

Members who haven’t already done so are encouraged to start planning for these changes.
