It isn鈥檛 just crane drivers who find themselves under pressure to 鈥減lay the game and take risks to save time鈥�. Just a few weeks ago an acquaintance who drives diggers was saying much the same thing.

While he has to hold the appropriate operators鈥� certificates, it is clients or site agents who then pressure him to bend the rules on the basis of: 鈥淚f you don鈥檛 want to do the job that way, we鈥檒l find someone else who will.鈥� However if something goes wrong when said rules are being bent it will be the operators fault.
