Safety

Moving large, heavy loads is crucial to today’s manufacturing and construction industries. Much technology has been developed for these operations, including careful training and extensive workplace precautions. There are significant safety issues to be considered, both for the operators of the diverse “lifting” devices, and for workers in proximity to them.

To a crane operator, few experiences can be as frightening as when a crane becomes unbalanced while a load is being lifted or when the crane collapses under the weight of an excessive load. A & J Crane Service understands that no lift is ever a routine lift. With each lift, we must consider personnel, equipment, and working conditions for the safety of all. We constantly educate our equipment operators in the proper operation of lifting equipment and material handling safety procedures.

When it comes to crane safety, we have a very strong understanding that safety and equipment training is an investment, and we will never short change ourselves or our customers. The personnel operating our cranes and material hoisting equipment have gone through rigorous safety training classes to ensure the safety of all personnel. We have a high determination to ensure that only the very best safety practices are taught and enforced.
