This structure was used to train many different groups, due to mast climbers being used for multiple trades. Training for masons, the window contractor, the inspectors, the steel contractors and the sheathing contractor were conducted here.

Today, with the information that is readily available through the internet, and with all the training available for hire (and some for free), there's no excuse for not having a safer mast climbing experience. This is important, not only for the end user, but also for others on jobsites who may not even be using the system.
Consider safety on mast climbers and responsibilities of end users. It's clear that, if you haven't been trained to operate a mast climber, you shouldn't. It's also clear, according to the CPWR (The Center for Construction Research and Training), that in 2010, more than 12,600 mast climbers are in operation daily in the United States. That comes out to around 2.5 million man hours annually, erecting and dismantling this type of equipment.
