Crane Hydra Safety Awareness Training
The construction industry has long recognized that construction is a high-risk series of activities requiring active safety measures every day. The accident frequency and severity rates in this industry are well above the averages of all other industries.
According to the Center for Construction and Research Training, more than a 100 people die in accidents involving heavy equipment each year. These accidents usually include mobile cranes, backhoes, surfacing machinery, excavators, loaders, tractors, and bulldozers.
