  • What is Dogging? Our Comprehensive Guide.

    Saferights Dogging course is one of our most popular courses, and for good reason! Dogging is a vital role in the construction and industrial sectors, ensuring safety and efficiency in lifting operations. If you’ve ever wondered about the specifics of what a dogman does, how it differs from rigging, and how to become a qualified dogman, you’re in the right place. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about Dogging.


    What is Dogging?

    What exactly is dogging? Dogging is the process of directing and managing the safe lifting and movement of loads using cranes and other lifting equipment. The term “dogging” originates from the practice of guiding and controlling the movement of loads, akin to how a dogman (or dogger) would manage and direct lifting operations. Dogging requires technical knowledge, strong communication skills, and practical expertise when handling loads safely and efficiently.

    Key aspects of dogging include:

    • Lifting Equipment Coordination: Collaborate closely with crane operators and riggers to use lifting equipment correctly and safely.
    • Communication: Using hand signals or radios to provide clear instructions to crane operators and other team members during lifting operations.
    • Safety Monitoring: Follow all safety protocols and procedures to prevent accidents and maintain a safe working environment.
    • Transport and Logistics: Handle and transport large goods or containers in warehouses or logistics hubs.
    • Shipyard and Dock Operations: Lift and maneuver large parts or vessels into place in shipyards.

    What does a Dogman do?

    A dogman, also known as a dogger, plays a crucial role in ensuring the safe and effective movement of loads on construction sites and industrial environments.

    The primary responsibilities of a dogman include:

    • Directing Cranes and Lift Operations: Using hand signals or radios to communicate with crane operators and guide the lifting and placement of loads.
    • Load Calculation and Assessment: Evaluate the weight and stability of loads to ensure they are securely fastened before lifting.
    • Securing Loads: Attaching and detaching loads using various rigging techniques, including slings and chains.
    • Safety Compliance: Ensuring that all lifting operations adhere to safety regulations and standards to prevent accidents.

    What are the benefits of becoming a Dogman?

    Becoming a qualified dogman offers numerous benefits, from enhancing safety and compliance to opening up job opportunities and increasing earning potential. Knowing how to perform your duties correctly not only boosts your confidence but also ensures the safety of everyone on site.

    Employers consider dogging skilled labor, which typically commands higher hourly rates than unskilled work. Additionally, proper technique in dogging is less physically demanding than general labour, making it suitable for a wide range of ages, from young workers to experienced professionals. (Please note: You must be 18 years or older to obtain a DG licence in Australia.)

    Whether you’re new to construction or already in the field, obtaining a Dogging ticket can significantly improve your career prospects. This qualification is also valuable in industries beyond construction, including transport, mining, and other heavy sectors.


    What is a Dogging Licence?

    You need a Dogging licence (Licence to perform dogging – CPCCLDG3001) to legally perform dogging tasks. It demonstrates that an individual has the necessary skills and knowledge to handle lifting operations safely. The dogging licence is governed by the National High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) framework in Australia, ensuring that workers doing this role are properly trained and assessed.

    To obtain a dogging licence, candidates must:

    • Complete a Training Course: Enrol in a nationally recognised dogging course that covers both theoretical and practical components.
    • Pass a Competency Assessment: Successfully complete an assessment that evaluates your ability to perform dogging tasks safely.
    • Apply for the Licence: Submit an application to the relevant state or territory authority, including proof of training and assessment.

    Who needs a Dogging licence?

    A dogging licence is crucial for roles that involve lifting and moving heavy loads. Jobs that require a dogging licence include:

    • Construction Site Dogman: Operating on building sites, ensuring that cranes and other lifting equipment safely move construction materials and equipment.
    • Industrial Crane Operator: Working in factories or industrial plants, where precise lifting and placement of heavy machinery or materials are necessary.
    • Mining Operations: Heavy machinery and equipment need to be lifted and positioned safely In the mining industry.
    • Transport and Logistics: In warehouses or logistics hubs, where large goods or containers are handled and transported.
    • Shipyard and Dock Operations: In shipyards, where large parts or vessels are lifted and maneuvered into place.

    Dogman vs. Rigger: What’s the Difference?

    While both dogmen and riggers play essential roles in lifting operations, their responsibilities differ significantly:

    Dogman


    Dogman focuses primarily on the safe movement of loads, including directing crane operators, securing loads, and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Dogmen work closely with crane operators to ensure that loads are lifted and placed correctly.

    Rigger

    Specialises in the setup and dismantling of rigging equipment, such as hoists, pulleys, and slings. Riggers are responsible for preparing the equipment used in lifting operations, ensuring that it is correctly installed and capable of handling the loads.

    In summary, a dogman manages the operational side of lifting and securing loads, while a rigger prepares and sets up the equipment used for these operations.


    How to Become a Dogman

    1. Gain a Qualification for Dogging

    If you wanted to become a Dogman the first step is to start your training to gain the necessary skills from a training organisation.

This licence is mandatory for performing Dogging work in Australia, ensuring that only trained and competent individuals are allowed to perform high-risk tasks.
    • How to Obtain the Licence: You can apply for this licence through WorkSafe or via the training organisation where you completed your scaffolding qualification. Saferight has this service with a additional fee, this makes it easier for you to get licensed and start working right after your qualified. 

    3. Obtain a white card

    • What is a White Card? The White Card, or also known as the ‘Construction Induction Training Card’, is an essential certification for anyone intending to work in the construction industry in Australia. It proves that you have completed the necessary general construction induction training, focusing on workplace health and safety (WHS) standards. 
    • Why is it Important? Without a White Card, you cannot legally work on a construction site in Australia. It ensures that all workers understand the fundamental safety practices required to maintain a safe working environment, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries on site. 
    • How to Get a White Card: To obtain your White Card, you must complete a short course provided by a registered training organisation (RTO). The course typically takes a day and covers essential topics such as identifying and managing risks, understanding safety laws, and knowing how to respond to potential hazards. 
    • Where to Apply: White Card courses are widely available across Australia, and usually offered by Registered Training Organisations. ‘Prepare to work safely in the construction industry – CPCCWHS1001’ is what you need to search for. After completing the course successfully, you’ll get a White Card that is recognised across the country, allowing you to work on any construction site in Australia. 

    4. Additional Tickets

    Having a Dogging ticket and your white card is a great way to start out, but having additional tickets under your belt makes you a more desirable candidate if you’re looking for work in the mining and construction industry.

  • Saferight Incorporates Roborigger Training In Its Dogging, Rigging & Crane Courses

    Roborigger has partnered with WA’s largest safety training facility, Saferight Training (RTO 5722) to incorporate Roborigger load control and orientation device training as part of its high-risk rigging, dogging, and crane operator courses.

    With 31 years of experience offering high-risk, height safety and confined space safety training at its purpose-built training facilities around WA, Saferight is proud of its reputation for bringing in exposure to the latest technologies as part of its courses. Training personnel to work safely and use the best available tools and equipment is aligned with Roborigger’s mission to drive cultural change for safer and more efficient crane lifting practices.

    Through the partnership with Saferight, any personnel enrolled in Saferight basic or advanced rigging, dogging, or crane operator’s courses will be given an introduction to Roborigger and will also have the opportunity to opt-in for Roborigger operator training at no extra cost and without extending the usual timeframe of the courses.

    Saferight Founder and Managing Director Mack McCormack said that by incorporating this new concept in the high-risk work sector for dogmen, riggers and crane operators, students will be well equipped with new rigging skills to increase safety and productivity levels in their workplace.

    “Employers are fulfilling their duty of care to their employees whilst providing their employees with the most updated construction technology as well as the safest method to rig and load in the construction and mining industry. Ultimately, students are the overall winners as they increase their qualifications with skills in updated technology without additional cost.”, says McCormack.

    “Our collaboration with Saferight is part of our critical mission to shift the culture in crane lifting. Offering the Roborigger training for free as part of the rigging and dogging courses means we can accelerate industry-wide adoption of safer and more efficient crane lifting where taglines are no longer required, and where we no longer need to put people in the line of fire.”, says Roborigger founder and Managing Director Derick Markwell.
