Members-Only OSHA Crane Legal Defense Guide Introduced

Created exclusively for SC&RA members by attorney and OSHA expert Michael Rubin, Esq., in cooperation with the Crane & Rigging Group Safety Education and Training Committee, the OSHA Crane Legal Defense Guide prepares employers in the crane industry for an OSHA inspection. This includes providing practical strategies that crane rental companies can implement before, during, and after an OSHA inspection. Whereas much of the guide provides general information and guidance on the OSHA-inspection process, the Appendix includes a checklist for common OSHA crane violations under 29 CFR Part 1926, Subpart CC, as well as an overview of all crane-related training requirements under Subpart CC.
