In recent years, there has been an increase in crane-related accidents. The majority of these accidents caused minor injuries, but a small percentage resulted in fatalities. Often, these accidents happen to non-crane operators.

The benefits of this program include promoting a safer working environment, increased attentiveness, and a well-educated workforce; especially in new workers.
