Shape the Future of the Powered Access Industry

Have you experienced an incident or near-miss with powered access machines? Your story can make a difference. 

Whether it’s a lesson learned or a life-saving tip, your story could be the one that prevents future accidents and saves lives. By sharing your experience, you’ll help us create real-world safety and training videos and guidance that empower others to work more safely.

At the heart of IPAF's #ShareYourStory campaign is a story from Ben Hirst, Director and Founder of Horizon Platforms. In his story, he shares a personal and eye-opening incident in the hope of improving safety awareness, enhancing training, and driving meaningful change in the powered access industry.
