Crane Controllers selected for the environment and responsibility

AJ Safety Services supplies Crane Controllers for rail-related lifting activity where clear communication, competency and calm judgement are essential.

Requirements can differ between London Underground and Network Rail environments, so the role, location, shift and required competencies are considered together.

01 / The requirement

More than holding the ticket

A Crane Controller must understand the lifting activity, maintain effective communication and take the responsibility of the role seriously. We look beyond a qualification alone when assessing suitability.

Tell us the rail environment, programme, shift pattern, number of personnel and competencies required. We will review the requirement before proposing suitable people.

At the lifting interface

Control depends on what is understood, communicated and acted upon.

01

Communicate

Clear exchanges around the planned lift and changing worksite conditions.

02

Coordinate

Awareness of plant, people and the controlled movement taking place.

03

Judge

Calm professional judgement suited to a role carrying real responsibility.

No. The environment and its current role requirements are considered separately before personnel are proposed.

No. The client retains responsibility for planning, supervision, safe systems and delivery; AJ supplies personnel against the stated requirement.
