Crane Safety

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has outlined a strict set of rules and regulations that must be complied with in order to reduce risks of serious injuries and fatal deaths due to accidents. However, crane accidents often occur due to unsafe working conditions, poor safety procedures, and negligence.

The most common cause of fatal accidents, roughly 40%, is when a crane comes into contact with a power line and causes electrocution. Other major causes of crane accidents include:

mechanical failures
rigging failures
overturned cranes
dropped loads
boom collapse
improper operation of the crane
