The Specialized Carriers & Rigging Association (SC&RA), an international trade association with more than 1,400 members from 46 nations, recognized SCS with the 2020 Crane & Rigging Group Safety Award and the Zero Accidents Award.
Together, the two awards signify world-class performance in crane and rigging safety. Firms across the United States and around the world submit dozens of entries to the SC&RA Awards competition.
“Safety is our main focus every single day. Lives and livelihoods depend on it completely — it’s that simple," said Ted Larkin, Safety Director with SCS. "Earning these two awards is huge for our teams. It’s an affirmation that what we’re doing exceeds global standards, and it reaffirms our commitment to keep doing even better."
The Crane & Rigging Group Safety Award is given to companies with a Workers’ Compensation Modification Rate of 1.0 or less; Property Damage Frequency Rate of 1.0 or less; and an incident rate of 1.7 or less, which is less than the industry average of 3.4, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
