2020 CICA National Conference, Perth WA: postponed

24/3/2020

 
RE: 2020 CICA National Conference, Perth WA
​
The CICA Board of Directors voted on Friday, 20 March, to postpone the 2020 CICA National Conference 12 months. This is in line with the Australian Government precautionary measures to restrict social gathering in a bid to combat the spread of COVID-19. The decision to postpone CICA’s annual national event was not taken lightly, but the health and safety of our members, international guests, and staff is our top priority.

Word from the President: March 2020

2/3/2020

 
Hello once again, and welcome to another Crane Association of New Zealand newsletter.

​This month’s column is short and sweet, which is why I’ll start with the most exciting – and arguably, most important – bit of news first.

Following last year’s CANZ roadshow, it was made abundantly clear that the industry wanted more certainty around training, qualifications, and Verification of Competency (VOC).

So, as you know, we’ve been running a CANZ Accreditation Licence Programme pilot (stage 3 only) on the CICA CrewSafe online assessment app, through the month of February 2020.

We received a little feedback from Fletchers and McLeod Cranes participants at our recent February 11 Council meeting.

CANZ expertise to be sought in future guidance development

2/3/2020

 
Following comprehensive multi-industry consultation to modernise legislation critical to the crane industry, the process to develop new regulations to replace the current Health and Safety in Employment (Pressure Equipment, Cranes, and Passenger Ropeways) Regulations 1999 is progressing.

WorkSafe’s Principal Engineer of Health and Technical Services, Stuart Wright, says all the submissions have been received and are being analysed by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE).

Mr Wright is WorkSafe’s foremost expert on Pressure Equipment, Cranes, and Passenger Ropeways (PECPR) regulations.

MBIE has signalled to all industry stakeholders that, subject to cabinet approvals, implementation is intended for in 2021.

Announcing new CANZ premier Business Year-Long Sponsor

2/3/2020

 
New Zealand’s largest industry training organisation – with over 25 years of go-to skills – has once again signed up to support the Crane Association of New Zealand, this time as a premier business year-long sponsor.

Skills confirmed its support as a significant financial supporter of CANZ late last year to underpin training and help raise the standard of the country’s crane industry.

This level of support and commitment to the crane industry also extends to Skills taking a representative role on the CANZ Council – which falls to Carl Rankin, Skills’ Industry Manager - Specialist Trades.

“Our involvement is slightly different from that of a regular CANZ member.  We’re a member because we’re involved with the industry as a standard setting body for the crane industry.

“So, we support the industry however we can, and part of that is sitting on the CANZ Council as a representative of Skills – and we also want to give back in other ways where we can.”

Pinpointing every hazard, including the concealed

2/3/2020

 
Following an incident early in his career, the Crane Association of New Zealand’s Past President, Scott McLeod, has never been more diligent of the residential sector’s hidden dangers in this month’s The Technical Corner.

Working for his dad in the 90s, Scott McLeod was tasked with lifting a single garage shed over a Katikati house and into the homeowner’s backyard using a Kato MR100.

Parked between two houses, he couldn’t quite manoeuvre it on to its concrete pad.  So, he lowered the shed short of the pad and released the rigging.

“I then retracted the boom, leaving it short over the rear of the crane before raising my outrigger legs leaving the outriggers out.”

Concerned he was causing the customer further delays, the Managing Director of McLeod Cranes then backed the crane up and promptly fell into a septic tank.
