Embodiments of a personnel basket for attachment to a crane boom include folding sidewall sections; a rear wall connected to the sidewall sections; a front wall in pivotal connection to one of the folding sidewall sections; a floor in pivotal relation to the rear wall; and a stalk connected to the rear wall and including a boom connection. Because of the pivotal relationships, the personnel basket is moveable or foldable in a connected or assembled condition between a deployed (unfolded) state and a folded (fully collapsed) state. When in the deployed state, the folding sidewall sections are in a vertical orientation and perpendicular to the vertically oriented rear and front walls and the horizontally oriented floor. When in the folded state, the folding sidewall sections remain vertically oriented, as do the rear and front walls, but overlap and are parallel to the rear and front walls and the floor.
