Getting a Dogging Ticket (CPCCLDG3001 Licence to perform dogging/ DG Class HRWL) is more than just a formality. It’s a critical step for anyone working in construction, mining, and nearly any industry where lifting loads is a daily occurrence.
But that’s not the only reason you’ll want a dogging ticket in your back pocket. Here are four more reasons why it’s essential for your career and safety.
Play it smart and get certified: 4 reasons why you need a dogging ticket
A dogging ticket is a sign you can be trusted with the machinery and load movements. It lays the foundation for a safe, qualified, and successful career ready for growth.
1. Legal requirements for safety
First things first, having a DG Class High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) isn’t optional as a dogger – it’s the law. By getting this ticket, you’re proving to authorities like WHSQ and your future bosses that you know your stuff. Without this ticket, you’re not stepping anywhere near a crane or heavy load that needs to be moved.
2. Career opportunities and advancement
Think a dogging ticket just leads to one job? Think again! It’s one of the most versatile tickets we offer and one that leads to many opportunities.
A dogging licence is the first step to roles like lead dogman, rigger, crane operator, site supervisor, or even safety officer in all sorts of industries.
3. Improving workplace safety
Aside from breaking the law, there’s serious potential to cause accidents, deaths, and damage to your rep in the industry.
A good dogman will identify and mitigate risks associated with lifting tasks to reduce the likelihood of workplace accidents and ensure regulation compliance.
But one that’s not qualified or is poorly trained, is not only risking their neck but the overall team’s safety and the future of the entire project.
When you’re training with us at Ascent, we’ll make sure you have all the theory and hands-on skills you need to keep everyone safe and the project running.
4. Teamwork and efficiency on the job site
Your dogging skills mean smoother, faster, and safer operations.
A dogging licence from Ascent Training Solutions teaches you the key skills you need to know how to work with crane operators and riggers – from signals and guidance to loading techniques and positioning.
From our state-of-the-art facility, we even simulate real construction site conditions, including the teamwork aspect. Students from different courses come together throughout the training days to coordinate moving heavy loads with real equipment and materials.
