Winch has been created around safety processes similar to those found in the aviation and healthcare industries, processes that maximise safety with minimal effort.
The winch checklist can be used as part of a pre-activity risk assessment check-list, for both trained and untrained winch operators.
Winch IS NOT a substitute for proper training, but in an emergency, it may help keep you safe.

Keeping you safe when winching
WINCH is designed for people with no formal winch training, but who’ve found themselves using a 4×4 winch for recovery purposes. WINCH is not an alternative to formal training. This should be sought through organisations recognised by BORDAorLANTRA
