Know Your Crane Signals.

If you are working with or around cranes its important to know your crane signals. The most important being STOP. 

The STOP signal can be given by anyone on site. In a crane operation safety is always of the highest priority. Crane operators are trained to accept a STOP signal from anyone whether they are part of the operation or not.

So if at any point during a crane operation you would like to stop the operation we encourage you not to hesitate and to use this signal so our team can work with you to address any concerns. No concern is too small or insignificant in a crane operation.
At McLeod we are focused on safety and clear communication is one of those key parts to ensuring a safe site every time.

To learn your signals see our website or speak to one of our Crane Operators who will be happy to help.
