| 2010-17818 | Cranes and Derricks in Construction | Rule | OSHA is revising the Cranes and Derricks Standard and related sections of the Construction Standard to update and specify industry work practices necessary to protect employees during the use of cranes and derricks in construction. This final standard also addresses advances in the designs of cranes and derricks, related hazards, and the qualifications of employees needed to operate them safely. Under this final rule, employers must determine whether the ground is sufficient to support the anticipated weight of hoisting equipment and associated loads. The employer is then required to assess hazards within the work zone that would affect the safe operation of hoisting equipment, such as those of power lines and objects or personnel that would be within the work zone or swing radius of the hoisting equipment. Finally, the employer is required to ensure that the equipment is in safe operating condition via required inspections and that employees in the work zone are trained to recognize hazards associated with the use of the equipment and any related duties that they are assigned to perform. | 2010-08-09 | 2010 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/08/09/2010-17818/cranes-and-derricks-in-construction | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-08-09/pdf/2010-17818.pdf | Labor Department; Occupational Safety and Health Administration | 271,386 | OSHA is revising the Cranes and Derricks Standard and related sections of the Construction Standard to update and specify industry work practices necessary to protect employees during the use of cranes and derricks in construction.
