“A Crane Operator Certificate of Competence is required to operate a crane in New York State in connection with construction, demolition, and excavation work. When issued by the Commissioner of Labor, this certificate authorizes operation of cranes anywhere in New York State, outside of the City of New York, and is a state-mandated license that both satisfies, and is required by, OSHA’s new crane certification standard. The Class A unrestricted license is the only license that allows operation of any type of crane.” (New York State – Department of Labor.)
