Crane climbers are a serious problem for construction companies. Encouraged by the exploits of thrill seekers on social media, trespassers are eager to climb cranes on job sites. Some construction sites report dozens of attempts a year. Too often, crane climbers are impaired and fall, injuring or killing themselves.
Even when crane climbers are unharmed, they may damage equipment. Aside from vandalism, a serious incident can significantly disrupt work as police cordon off the area to apprehend the crane climber or investigate an injury or death. Although a lawsuit against a property owner or general contractor may not succeed, it would harm your public relations and may increase insurance rates.
