Legislative & Industry Information

OSHA requires that all crane operators must obtain a nationally accredited license or otherwise meet the conditions of Subpart CC, no matter where you operate in the United States. Our Nationally Accredited crane operator license programs meet the conditions of Subpart CC.

As of today there are no state licensing requirements to operate a crane. Please note this could change at any time. Below are three links that can help keep you up to date for any changes to the UT laws.

This page is where we post news articles of interest to heavy equipment operators in the state of Utah as we see them. Some of these articles will be accident or citation reports , while others may be new initiatives by OSHA that are happening specifically in Utah.

While all states must follow federal guidelines when it comes to operating cranes, forklifts, excavators, and other heavy equipment, state regulations can and do change. When we find out about any of those changes, we will post them here, was well as sending updates directly to our newsletter subscribers.





 

Cranes101 offers nationally accredited crane licensing, which are federally required for operators. If your operators need licensing, please contact us to set up a class for them at your site, on your equipment. The Crane Rule update also requires that your operators, in addition to a license, be qualified on the equipment they run on the job-site. Cranes101 can perform those qualifications on-site.
