WorkSafeBC Video Raises Awareness about Crane Safety
June 13, 2016 - WorkSafeBC aims to raise crane companies’ awareness of the need for regular maintenance and inspection by releasing an educational video deisgned to help prevent construction fatalities due to crane failures.
“The video is an awareness tool unto itself, but it is certainly done in association with everything else that WorkSafeBC is doing on cranes,” says Al Johnson, vice-president, prevention services, WorkSafeBC. “Employers need to know that the content of the video is what our crane team and our officers are investigating when they are out there. So the issues the video depicts are clearly in line with what our officers do when they show up at your site. This is what you can expect them to ask you about.”
