Course Overview

The TLILIC0022 – Licence to operate a slewing mobile crane (up to 20 tonnes) is a nationally recognised unit that leads to a C2 High Risk Work Licence, authorising you to operate slewing mobile cranes with a capacity of 20 tonnes or less.

This course is ideal for workers in construction, utilities, logistics, mining, or crane hire, and is often the first step in the slewing crane licensing pathway. It covers safe crane operation, load movement, communication, and emergency procedures.

Training is delivered face-to-face at our Perth facility or onsite, and includes theory, practical skills development, and final assessment by a WorkSafe WA-licensed assessor.

This course is the entry point into slewing crane operation and is commonly followed by upgrades to C6 (60T), C1 (100T) or C0 (over 100T) crane licences.

Career Opportunities

Completing the C2 crane course is a great entry point into the lifting and construction industries. With your C2 class high risk work licence, you can work in roles such as:

Mobile crane operator for light civil or construction projects
Yard or depot crane operator in transport or logistics
Support crew member for larger crane teams or rigging operations
Labourer or general site worker with lifting responsibilities

This licence is especially useful if you’re starting a career in construction, infrastructure, transport, or maintenance, and is often a requirement for FIFO, shutdown, and utility-related roles.

It also provides a pathway to upgrade to larger crane licences (C6, C1, or C0) as you gain more experience in the industry.

Workplace Implementation

Holding a valid C2 High Risk Work Licence ensures that your workers can legally and safely operate slewing mobile cranes up to 20 tonnes, in line with WorkSafe WA regulations and national WHS legislation.

C2-licensed operators are trained to:

Conduct pre-start checks and identify mechanical faults
Operate smaller slewing cranes in confined or congested site conditions
Interpret lift plans and use load charts for accurate, compliant lifting
Work safely around personnel, structures, and live services
Coordinate with doggers, riggers, and ground crews during operations

Employing C2-licensed workers helps reduce lifting-related incidents, improves operational efficiency, and ensures compliance across construction sites, infrastructure projects, transport depots, and maintenance teams where light-to-mid-range crane work is required.
