In the field of modern industry and construction, lifting operations and lifting machinery play a pivotal role, they not only greatly improve the efficiency of work, but also expand the boundaries of construction and production. However, as the complexity of lifting operations and lifting machinery to enhance the diversity of the types of safety issues have become increasingly prominent. Lifting operations involve working at height, heavy lifting and other high-risk aspects, once improper operation or equipment failure, it may cause serious accidents, posing a huge threat to the safety of personnel and production order. Therefore, in-depth discussion of lifting operations and lifting machinery safety requirements, not only to follow the industry norms, but also to respect and protect the safety of life.

Definition and classification of lifting operations
Lifting operations refers to the use of a variety of lifting machinery and equipment, through vertical or horizontal movement of materials to achieve loading and unloading, installation, handling and other operational processes. According to the mode of operation, material characteristics and the use of different scenes, lifting operations can be divided into lifting operations, handling operations, loading and unloading operations and other types. Each type has its own specific safety requirements and operational standards. For example, lifting operations require the use of cranes and other lifting machinery, heavy lifting and installation or movement; handling operations require the use of forklifts and other equipment, the material will be moved in the horizontal direction; loading and unloading operations need to be in ports, yards and other places, the use of various loading and unloading machinery will be loaded or unloaded into or out of the vehicle, warehouse and other places.

Safety risk assessment of lifting operations
Before carrying out lifting operations, a comprehensive assessment of factors such as the working environment, equipment conditions, and material characteristics must be conducted to determine potential safety risks. The assessment content includes but is not limited to equipment carrying capacity, working space restrictions, material stability, etc. Through risk assessment, targeted safety precautions can be formulated to reduce the probability of accidents. For example, for lifting operations, it is necessary to assess whether the crane's carrying capacity meets the requirements, whether the lifting plan is reasonable, whether the lifting equipment is safe and reliable, etc.; for handling operations, it is necessary to assess whether the passage is unobstructed, whether the forklift is stable, etc.; for loading and unloading operations, it is necessary to assess whether the stability of the cargo is good, whether the operation of the loading and unloading machinery is standardized, etc.

Qualification requirements for lifting operators
Lifting operators must have corresponding professional knowledge and skills and hold valid operating certificates. They should be familiar with the performance, structure, safety devices and operating methods of lifting machinery, and master basic first aid knowledge and emergency response skills. In addition, operators need to receive regular training and assessments to continuously improve their safety awareness and operating skills. At the same time, operators also need to understand relevant safety regulations and operating procedures to ensure the safety of themselves and others.

Safety management of lifting operation sites
A sound safety management system should be established at the lifting operation site to clarify the safety responsibilities and operating specifications of personnel at all levels. Obvious safety warning signs should be set up on site and necessary safety protection facilities should be equipped. At the same time, the monitoring and management of the operation process should be strengthened to ensure that various safety measures are effectively implemented. For example, at the lifting operation site, safety signs such as cordons and warning lights should be set up to remind passers-by and vehicles to pay attention to safety; at the handling operation site, the passage should be kept unobstructed to avoid the stacking of debris and obstacles; at the loading and unloading operation site, the cargo stacking and transportation routes should be reasonably arranged to avoid cross-operation and collision accidents.
