Cranes provide lifting power that can be indispensable for industrial and construction operations. But they can also create serious hazards for the people who work with and around them. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, crane accidents lead to thousands of accidents, injuries and more than 70 fatalities each year... but they don't have to happen.

Atlantic Training's "Cranes Safety" Interactive CD-ROM training course reminds employees that over 90 percent of crane-related accidents are caused by human error... and that they are the key to preventing these incidents. Areas covered in the course include:

• Physical and mental preparation.
• Equipment inspection.
• Hazard assessment.
• Boom, jib and overhead cranes.
• Standard safety devices.
• Crane operations.
• Hand signals.
• ...and more!

Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this course from the Interactive CD-ROM Training Library provides the most cost-effective training available today. The course features platform software which installs automatically, and comprehensive user's and trainer's guides. The course takes about 45 minutes to complete (depending on the employee), and is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood... and retained.
