Crane Safety - More Than an Issue for Construction Industry

Cranes, hoists, slings and lifts are used in construction and in many manufacturing and warehouse operations. In fact, 50% of accidents involve non-construction crane and hoist usage. The size of this equipment makes the need for safety training obvious. The types of material moved by these devices are among the heaviest and most awkward. Typically, workers are operating as a team and the entire team is at risk for being struck. Between 1997 and 1999, 79% of the injuries reported were non-crane operators (Crane Accidents 1997 - 1999: A Report Of The Crane Unit of The Division of Occupational Safety and Health, Philip Yow).
