Crane safety training SHOULD be an essential part of any companies overall safety and efficiency program, in any construction or industrial, or oilfield environment. Light duty cranes, known by many names like: mini crawler cranes, boom truck, pickers, service cranes, carry deck cranes, etc. are generally smaller and more versatile machines that are often used in tight spaces or for general maintenance, hotshot, plant turnarounds or more specific tasks and we find most operators don’t have any light crane safety training at all.
