Why This Is the Correct Answer

Rigging must be inspected, load weights confirmed, and damaged gear removed before lifting.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: use the undamaged end

use the undamaged end may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the rigging safety control exposure being tested.

Option B: tape it and make the lift

tape it and make the lift may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the rigging safety control exposure being tested.

Option D: reinspect after this pick

Memory Technique

Name the harm before the guard; undamaged, end, tape cannot stand in for Lift Team.
