Should overload protection devices be standard on all lifting equipment – even that under 1t capacity?
– Definitely, units operating without them are unsafe (70%)
– It’d be too difficult to enforce (22%)
– Lifting light loads is safe without them (4%)
– It will happen eventually (2%)
– I don’t care either way (2%)
– It’d be too expensive, units wouldn’t be saleable (0%)
