Safety on Your Site

Continuous training and development

Our engineers undergo continuous training and development both on all makes and models of lifting equipment and on all relevant safety regulations and updates in the law, to ensure the highest standards of safety are upheld when working on your site.

All substances such as oils, greases and sprays used by Street Cranexpress have to be risk and COSHH assessed accordingly. Rigorous checks ensure that only the most appropriate substances are used for the application and our engineers are all trained to ensure that the tools used are fit for purpose, calibrated, tested or certified as required either by law or our management system.

Our commitment to continuous improvement, which involves regular auditing of our systems, processes and procedures, also incorporates continuous personal development which ensures that all our employees have the knowledge, skills and desire to do the best possible job for our clients.

Accreditation

The driving force behind all procedures and processes, the SCE Business Management System is accredited to ISO9001 Quality Management, ISO14001 Environmental Management and OHSAS18001 Occupational Health and Safety Management demonstrating our commitment to improving company performance and productivity, conforming with environmental legislation and providing a framework for improving health and safety performance.

Every year since 2007, Street Cranexpress has been independently verified by safecontractor; a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises very high standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors, proving our commitment to the safety of our employees and clients.

LOLER and PUWER regulations training

Compulsory for all crane service engineers, sales engineers and customer service staff, regular LOLER & PUWER Regulations Training ensures that we continue to provide consistently high levels of service to our customers in accordance with official regulations, legal requirements and implications of the lifting industry.

LEEA TEAM Cards

All Street Cranexpress engineers are actively encouraged towards qualifying for a LEEA TEAM Card; a scheme run by the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) in order to raise standards of safety in lifting equipment testing, examination and maintenance.

Street Cranexpress is committed to continuous improvement and training and these cards officially demonstrate our engineers’ competency, experience and evidence of training.

Currently, all our service engineers either hold a TEAM card plus numerous LEEA specialist qualifications or are in the process of qualifying by having taken at least one of the entry exams. This means that you can be sure that the person responsible for looking after your lifting equipment is more than qualified to do so.

RAMS

Before undertaking any work on cranes, lifting equipment or associated systems, our engineers undertake appropriate Point of Work Risk Assessments and Method Statements (POW RAMS).

We are continually improving our safe systems of work and we ensure that we back this up with supporting evidence and documentation. Point of Work Risk Assessments are undertaken for each and every job we attend, and this feedback can be provided to the customer, assuring them that our engineers’ working practices are as safe as possible, whilst we’re on their site.
