Example sentence:

All participants in a lifting operation shall, at all times, know who is the signaller. Participants in lifting operations and their roles can be made known through the wearing of special clothing, such as a reflective vest, hardhat or similar. The

signaller can manually guide the empty hook to and from the load or load carrier.
