The minimum requirements for an overhead crane operator are the physical and

mental capability and competence to perform the work. Unless able to provide

satisfactory evidence of qualifications and experience, operators should be

required to pass a written or oral examination and a practical operating

examination. The assessment of operator qualifications should be limited to the

specific type of equipment for which the operator is examined.

Operators and operator trainees should have normal depth perception, field of

vision, reaction time, manual dexterity, coordination, and no tendencies to

dizziness or similar undesirable conditions. (Refer to Appendix A for additional

information.)
