This accreditation includes a review by the relevant customers of BOOM's
safety systems, quality systems, operating procedures and equipment. This
provides BOOM with significant advantages over other companies who are
unable to fulfill the stringent requirements.
CraneSafe
Safety is BOOM Logistics' number one priority... and when the CraneSafe
system was introduced for the Australian crane industry in some states, BOOM Logistics immediately took the initiative
and introduced the CraneSafe programme and applied it to the national
fleet of cranes.
CraneSafe, an initiative of the Crane Industry Council of Australia, with
the support of other bodies including government departments and construction
unions, was set up to establish a structured crane inspection regime.
It is working well in improving crane equipment and raising safety standards.
The CraneSafe system is still to be recognised in all states but BOOM
Logistics adopted a policy to embrace the CraneSafe Inspection system
in all states.
The programme is based on a network of independently accredited CraneSafe
inspectors who inspect and report on the company's equipment.
The annual inspection is designed to detect any faults and have them repaired
to the CraneSafe standard and then accredited.
Once cranes are accredited, to CraneSafe standards, 'green stickers' are
issued for affixing to the crane. Customers and cranes users recognise
this procedure and accept that BOOM is using quality equipment.
