A mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) must be inspected daily or at the start of each shift to make sure it is safe to use; and will not cause an injury to the platform occupants or other personnel.
Mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) can be used in confined areas, or near overhead structures. When travelling or when elevated there is a risk that the operator or the platform occupant may come in contact with an overhead obstruction. This could result in crushing or entrapment of that person.
The International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) and construction technology leader Trackunit have marked a major milestone in their ongoing partnership, as IPAF’s ePAL app surpasses one million downloads globally.
