Crane Operations Safety

Crane operation is an integral part of any worksite, employing and potentially endangering approximately 250,000 operators and workers. The signal person plays a critical role in safe crane operations, giving the operator a second pair of eyes on the ground.

Ensure your workers know and understand the universal, non-verbal hand signals that are used while working with and around these potentially dangerous and massive machines. Different types of mobile cranes are covered, including crawler, locomotive, wheel mounted, and truck mounted.

In just five lessons your workers are taught to successfully and safely plan a lift from start to finish, including awareness of site conditions, the type of lifting that needs to be done, crane inspection and set-up, and safe work practices.
