The implementation of this module contributes to mitigating the following risks:

a) compliance with legislation (LOLER, PUWER, HASAW);

b) damage to assets, e.g. RRV or its load hitting a passing train during ALO operation;

c) overturning, e.g. RRV overturning during lifting operations;

d) MEWPs becoming out of control, e.g. MEWP operator being crushed under a structure; and

e) collisions, e.g. collision between a RRV and an OTM; staff injuries, e.g. Operator.
