The West Palm Beach crane pick has this communication condition: lift path is blocked from operator view. Which safety control should be used?

Correct Answer

C) single designated signaler

Crane operations need clear, qualified signaling when the operator's view or communication is limited.

Answer Options
A
several workers signal at once
B
rigger and foreman both direct
C
single designated signaler
D
hand and radio from two people

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Crane operations need clear, qualified signaling when the operator's view or communication is limited.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: several workers signal at once

several workers signal at once may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the crane signal control exposure being tested.

Option B: rigger and foreman both direct

rigger and foreman both direct may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the crane signal control exposure being tested.

Option D: hand and radio from two people

hand and radio from two people may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the crane signal control exposure being tested.

Memory Technique

If Lift Director can still reach the worker, the control is decoration.

Reference Hint

Open-book path: tab OSHA 29 CFR 1926 to Subpart CC, 1926.1419 Signals and 1926.1428 Signal person qualifications; verify the OSHA safety threshold or jobsite control before answering.
