CICB’s Subject Matter Expert, John O’Connor, will present an overview of OSHA’s Mobile Crane Operator requirements during the Expo. “There is still some confusion and uncertainty in the industry on OSHA’s final ruling from November of last year.” said John O’Connor. “Since OSHA issued the final rule, there have been many questions relating to the certification and evaluation of crane operators. It’s vitally important for employers to have a clear understanding of their responsibility and to bring their companies into compliance”
