Effective immediately, the minimum experience time for certification is no longer required. This change also eliminates the “Safety Card” that operators receive if they did not have enough experience time to fulfill the prior requirement for certification.
Exciting news! As an added benefit, ACPA members now have access to a personalized learning management system (LMS) through ACPA-U. We’re excited to offer this opportunity to your company!
In the constantly evolving world of construction and concrete pumping, the need for e ective training and communication is paramount, especially for organizations like Western Concrete Pumping. ACPA University has emerged as an innovative solution, revolutionizing how we engage with our workforce, particularly with our remote operators who often miss out on critical safety updates and educational opportunities.
For concrete pumping business owners grappling with the challenges of a hard insurance market, adopting best-in-class safety practices can be a game-changer. In the Concrete Pumping Fall 2024 issue, “Navigating Rising Insurance Costs in a Hard Market,” we explored the challenging landscape of the current insurance market, where insurance providers have tightened their underwriting criteria and pumpers are subsequently facing soaring premiums and restricted coverage. This scenario is driven by factors like inflation and increased auto accident costs, catastrophic weather events, regulatory impacts and nuclear verdicts in which juries issue damage awards of more than $10 million.
ACPA is pleased to announce its partnership with Clearwater Health / Risk Strategies to help members provide affordable, high-quality healthcare solutions for their businesses.
If your concrete pumping business is facing steep increases in insurance renewals or struggling to obtain coverage, you're not alone. The insurance industry is currently experiencing a "hard market" environment when it comes to rates and insurability.
