What should signal personnel focus on during operations?

The primary focus of signal personnel during operations is the safety of everyone in the area. Signal persons play a crucial role in coordinating lifts and ensuring that all workers and bystanders remain safe throughout the operation. This involves constant vigilance to potential hazards, clear communication with the crane operator, and assessing the environment to avoid accidents. Prioritizing safety helps prevent injuries and ensures compliance with safety regulations, which is essential in construction and heavy lifting operations. The effectiveness of the signal person directly contributes to a secure worksite, making safety their most critical responsibility.
