Description:

AGC of America, supported by a Susan Harwood Federal Training Grant, developed the Crane Management in Construction Safety Training. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), from 2011 to 2015, the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) reported 220 total crane-related deaths, an average of 44 per year over this 5-year period with 42% of the fatal work injuries taking place in the private construction industry. The data also shows that specialty contractors and heavy and civil engineering construction accounted for the most fatalities involving cranes in private construction. AGC of America is pleased to offer this FREE, one-day training program based on OSHA standards and best practices to answer the need for quality training within the industry. The course will be delivered via Zoom Meetings and continuing educations credits will be offered.
