New Federal Crane Operator Certification Rule

OCT -IndNews - NERCA - New Federal Crane Operator Certification Rule
October 13, 2018 at 6:27 a.m.

The North/East Roofing Contractors Association (NERCA) would like to issue a reminder to all employers that the effective date for the new Federal Crane Operator Certification Rule is November 10, 2018 for construction employers.

Under this rule, many state crane licenses WILL NOT count for compliance themselves. Only exams that contain a written and a practical portion will meet the federal criteria for compliance. We recommend ensuring that all of your crane operators have received the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) or Crane Institute Certification (CIC) training for each type of crane they control and that they keep those certifications on hand.

Private instructors are available through NCCCO and CIC. NERCA has created the attached document to better inform our members of the Federal and various State certification requirements.

Download a copy of the NERCA Crane Operator Certification Guide.

As soon as possible, we recommend that all employers of crane operators ensure that their state licenses are up to date and to require employees achieve NCCCO/CIC certification. While there is always the chance that the Federal Crane Operation Certification Rule will be delayed again, there will be a last minute rush all across the industry, so it is best to be ahead of the curve.
