NCCCO Releases Jobsite Responsibilities Series
NCCCO has released a series of articles that take a deeper dive into common jobs in the crane & rigging industry to clearly outline and define their responsibilities and training requirements.
The first article in the series, Responsibilities of On-Site Personnel for Cranes, outlines the industry’s standards and federal regulations for on-site personnel. The article provides OSHA’s definitions for common terms related to qualification; competent, certified, and qualified.
Responsibilities of Supervisors, Users, and Owners, is the second article in the series. The article defines the various responsibilities for the controlling entity, site supervisor, crane user, and crane owner, and explains how they work in coordination with each other.
The last article of the series focuses on the Responsibilities of Lift Directors. The Lift Director role was created by The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), so the rules and regulations apply across all industries, not just crane & rigging.
It is important for all job site personnel to be aware of their responsibilities and training requirements to ensure a safe and effective jobsite.
