The U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has recently issued an enforcement policy for crane operator certifications issued by Crane Institute Certification (CIC). OSHA now requires crane operators engaged in construction activity to be certified by an entity accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency. The CIC no longer holds such accreditation. Until further notice, OSHA will not accept CIC certification, including re-certification, issued on or after December 2, 2019. To view this complete news item, click here.
