Editorial Highlights Safety Training Company’s Crane Operator, Rigger and Inspector Programs
Orlando, FL and Houston, TX (PRWEB) September 30, 2014 -- When construction companies that rely heavily on cranes need their equipment inspected or their operators trained or certified, those firms are increasingly turning to Crane Inspection & Certification Bureau (CICB) in Orlando, Florida and Houston, Texas for their expertise.
“In the construction industry, we mainly assist those companies to get their mobile crane operators nationally certified to meet the most recent OSHA crane law,” explained Director of Sales and Marketing, Billy Cook. Part of the comprehensive training services CICB offers are programs for riggers and signal people, as well as training crane inspectors, aerial work platform operators, forklift operators, and safety awareness for managers and supervisors.
Another important part of CICB’s business is in the inspection of cranes for the construction or general industries. “Our inspectors’ unique knowledge, technical expertise, along with numerous years of experience, make our inspections second to none,” said Camille Singletary, Sales and Marketing Administrator. “Not only are our inspectors nationally certified by NCCCO and backed by third-party liability insurance, but they regularly receive education and updates regarding OSHA and ANSI/ASME laws and regulations.”
“There has been a positive move for most companies to require true third-party inspections for cranes before they are moved onto their work sites”, said Cook. “The idea is to overcome the potential conflict of interest for a crane owner inspecting their own crane, which also means they may be inspecting their own work, as well,” he continued, “and it also eliminates somebody who is inspecting a crane writing a work order to repair that crane himself. So the true third-party inspector, which CICB is, has as its goal the safety of the crane and all the people that work around it. We want to make sure that at the end of the day everyone returns safely home to their families.”
