& Rigging Accident Investigation

The 2015 Crane & Rigging Conference Canada is more than just lectures. The Nov. 9-10 conference in Edmonton, Alberta, includes panel discussions and interactive workshops so attendees can be engaged with crane and rigging regulators, safety experts, and consultants.

 

One such workshop is a hands-on accident investigation workshop led by Joe Kuzar, Industrial Training International's assistant technical director. Using sketches, witness accounts, sheriff's reports, and inspection documents, participants will analyze the root cause of a major overhead crane and rigging accident, as well as the poor and contradictory operating practices that conflict with the organization's policies and the local jurisdiction's laws.

 

CRC Canada staff caught up with Joe to learn more about his area of expertise.
