While working as a crane operator the first thing comes to mind is safety. It is a general phenomenon that every industry has a set of trainings which they provide to their employees on regular internals and keep them updated. In construction companies, crane safety trainings are the most important. The maximum accidents are caused because of negligence while operating a crane or due to mechanical fault. We can reduce the crane operator negligence by providing them with proper training and guiding them on use of a crane.

It is mandatory for every crane operator to do crane certification. crane certification will include everything like how to operate a crane, how to work on it, its impact, and hand signals etc.  All institutes provide a series of sessions that will include both theoretical and practical classes. The only difference is in theoretical classes they just give an overview of the subjects and in practical session they teach how to do things practically. But if we talk about safety trainings then the basic safety training is provided to an operator by an institute but the main core of safety training is provided by the company. They provide these trainings in live environment i.e. their construction site.

Crane operator should be aware of crane inspection. Crane inspection is generally done a special team which consists of mechanical engineers and they will test and check all the parts of a crane on regular basis. Just to ensure that crane is safe to work on. But if your crane operator is certified in all the courses then it would be like a jackpot for you. He can act as a one man army for you. It is good to hire a professional with maximum knowledge and certifications and keep on updating his skills by providing different trainings to him.
