OR-OSHA administrative rules regarding crane safety require that persons operating cranes in construction have a Crane Operator Safety Training Card. The safety card certifies a minimum level of crane operator safety training. Each person who satisfactorily completes the course of instruction and passes a final examination is presented a picture ID card that meets the OR-OSHA requirements. Must recertify every three years.
