Word from the President

1/10/2019

 
Another month and another word or two from me about what’s happening within our industry and Association.

While I know everybody is exceptionally busy, there is a hell of a lot occurring throughout the industry that will have an impact on the daily running of your businesses.

Of the many issues we covered at our latest Council meeting on September 10, the major changes to the Pressure Equipment, Cranes, and Passenger Ropeways Regulations and vocational education and training were of prime concerns.

If you haven’t heard, Education Minister Chris Hipkins announced earlier this year that the country’s institutes of technology and polytechnics will merge into one.

Greater industry representation reaps rewards

1/10/2019

 
The Crane Association of New Zealand (CANZ) Council is nothing if not determined, one member says, and multi-industry representatives are key to that philosophy.

So says Liebherr New Zealand’s Sales Manager Mobile & Crawler Cranes, Tom Curran, who is a Council Associate Member Representative.

His grandfather, John William Collins, had his own operation from 1952 until 1980 when his father, Donald Collins, bought the business.

Being vigilant: risks are part and parcel of industry benefits

1/10/2019

 
The Crane Association of New Zealand’s Past President, Scott McLeod, discusses why technological advancements should not be taken for granted in this month’s The Technical Corner.

New and innovative technology might afford a myriad of benefits but often come with unforeseen risks, too.
Take crane remote controls as an example – considered to be a modern marvel, they are the ultimate safety device in an industry with considerable risks.

However, like many things, they have hazards associated with them that users should always be wary and respectful of, McLeod Cranes & Hiabs Managing Director, Scott McLeod, says.
