Have You Missed Anything?

The Qualification and Certification requirements under the recently enacted 29 CFR Subpart CC Crane and Derrick standards have received a great deal of attention. Widely publicized are the following deadlines:

  • All Crane Operators involved in construction must be Nationally Certified by November 10, 2014
  • All Riggers must be Trained and Qualified by November 8, 2010
  • All Signal Persons must be Trained and Designated as Qualified by November 8, 2010
  • Assembly/Disassembly Directors must be Trained and Designated
  • Crane Inspectors must be Trained and Designated as Qualified

But there are also equally important additions from this ground breaking OSHA ruling that many are not aware of:

  • Wire Rope Inspection Criteria
  • Responsibilities for Assembly/Disassembly Director
  • Signal Person Requirements that don’t include providing a signal
  • Working around Power Lines
  • Refresher Training
  • Crane Inspections
