SAFETY, QUALITY & ENVIRONMENT

We take on the jobs that many others can’t or won’t – but we always put good business practices first.

We take pride in providing our customers with the most reliable, best quality goods and services – but never at the expense of the environment or the health and wellbeing of the people we work with and the communities we operate in.

Demonstrating our commitment to continuous safety improvements, we are certified to ISO 45001,  ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 – the internationally recognised standards for Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S), Quality and Environmental management systems.

THE STARTSAFE® APP

Pre-start inspections of cranes and rigging prior to commencing work is the most safety-critical task crane operators are expected to do every day. It’s not just important but a legal responsibility for the holder of a high-risk work licence (the Operator).

Developed by the Crane Industry Council of Australia (CICA), the StartSafe® app is revolutionising pre-start inspections for crane owners and operators with an easy-to-use digital tool for daily checks and maintenance reporting that Marr is adopting on all cranes in our fleet. 

THE Buddie system

Marr was the first business in the world to implement new crane safety tech, The Buddie System. Developed in Australia by experienced crane industry professionals Gary Panagiotidis and Jade Harris, The Buddie System is designed for crane operators and dogmen / slinger signallers to reduce the risk of accidents caused by two-way radio issues or miscommunication between crane crews. The wireless instant safety alert device overcomes the shortfalls of existing two-way radio technology by allowing dogmen to instantly alert crane operators to stop if something goes wrong. With up to 30 percent of crane accidents involving miscommunication between operators and ground crews, The Buddie System has real potential to prevent injuries and fatalities on construction sites.
