Course Summary

This course is designed to instruct workplace trainers on how to effectively deliver OSG’s Safe Operation of a Mobile Boom Crane course.

Mobile boom cranes are an essential piece of equipment required for safe and efficient material handling on construction and industrial job sites. Competent operators that apply what they have been taught, contribute to overall site safety through their training, knowledge and experience.

Failure to have competent operators has led to tip-overs, boom collapses, contact with power lines, or uncontrolled hoisted loads. This has resulted in injury or loss to life, product and property. This course will provide participants with the necessary knowledge required to properly identify hazards, inspect, and safely operate the equipment.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Explain hazards specific to the equipment and job site
  • Identify and discuss common crane components
  • Explain and perform thorough pre-operational inspections

  • Execute a safe lift plan
  • Explain safe hoisting and operating techniques
