The Importance of Two-Way Communication during a Crane Operation


A construction site is a dynamic workplace, where things can turn quite hazardous if proper safety measures aren’t put into practice.


We’ve all seen workers in high visibility safety vests and neon hardhats coordinating projects and transporting bulky objects on construction sites using heavy machinery and gigantic cranes.


It’s a scene that’s loud, busy, and noisy and has no room for error.


To maintain the safety, security, productivity and efficiency of such a construction site, and to reduce the risk of accidents during crane operations, clear, two-way communication is extremely important.


To ensure that the two-way communication between site workers is fast and effective, especially when they’re conducting a crane operation, you should consider using a two-way radio system.

Here’s why.


Easy To Use

A two-way radio system is extremely easy to use. Its touch-button talk system has no distractions and can be operated in a simple manner, which helps ensure instant communication between the crane operator and on-ground workers.


Clear Audio

With multiple projects taking place at the same time on a single construction site, things can become quite hectic. The noise in the environment can make it difficult for workers to communicate and coordinate.


By using a two-way radio system, you can ensure clarity in communication as the device is designed to cancel and suppress background noises. The volume on the system can also be adjusted from lower to higher depending on the noise in the environment. Moreover, a two-way radio system is also resistant to vibrations and extreme temperatures. It also reduces wind noise to ensure safe and secure crane operations.


Durable

Two-way radio systems are built by military standards for impact, temperature and weather. This makes them reliable to use for a crane operation of any magnitude. Even if they’re exposed to water, wind, dirt or a harsh work environment, they ensure quality communication between workers conducting a crane operation.


Service during Emergencies

In case of an accident or disaster, communication can be disrupted because of the failure of landline and cell service towers. However, two-way radio systems work fine even in these emergency situations.
