Operators must obtain construction crane operator training and certification based on the relevant crane capacity.

All relevant personnel must pass the practical and written exams through an accredited training and examination body.

Employers must regularly assess and keep a record of their operator's machine handling and safety skills.

Operators must attend additional training classes at specified intervals to remain compliant.
