Provided is a hoisting implement which can change a hoisting posture of a long object with a simple and light-weight configuration and minimize a possibility of occurrence of operational errors. The hoisting implement includes a first connection part and a second connection part disposed so that a center of gravity comes between the first connection part and the second connection part along the longitudinal direction of the long object. The first connection part allows a first end of the hoist rope to be fixed to the long object. The second connection part includes a link having a distal portion to which a second end of the hoist rope is allowed to be connected, a swing supporting portion fixed to the long object to swingably support the link about a proximal portion of the link, and a holding portion that detachably holds the distal portion of the laid link.
