Abstract
- The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is one step closer to revising its rules for construction cranes and derricks. The OSHA-appointed Crane and Derrick Negotiated Rulemaking Committee, crafting changes to the crane standard since last year, on July 9 reached a consensus on major elements of an updated rule. OSHA staffers next must flesh out the committee's consensus agreement into detailed regulatory language that will be submitted to OSHA chief John Henshaw. It will be reviewed by other agencies and undergo an economic analysis. The current crane panel includes equipment manufacturers and suppliers, contractors, labor unions, insurers and government officials.
