  • How long can a crane operate before needing to be inspected?

They must complete formal training through a Registered Training Organisation (RTO), pass assessments and demonstrate competency in crane operation, safety procedures and regulations. Different licences cover specific crane types.

  • What is the role of a rigger in crane operations?

    A rigger in crane operations is responsible for safely attaching and securing loads to the crane, selecting appropriate lifting equipment and guiding crane operators during lifts. They ensure proper load balancing, maintain communication with operators and assess site conditions to prevent accidents and ensure smooth operations.
