Overhead Crane | Supervision | Legal Requirements

Please can you help me, I work in a warehouse by myself and operate an overhead crane by myself.

I have heard it is against the health and safety law for me to do this.

Please can you send me some evidence of these rules or a website so I can obtain this information please.

Dear Sir
if you go to the HSE web site and type in
Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) 1998: Open learning guidance
you will be able to down load the guidance document.
Lone working is usually governed by risk assessment and controls in place.
