The IPAF Rental+ standard is the powered access industry’s guarantee of a quality hire/rental company. Being a condition of IPAF Rental membership, the annual audit ensures members have met and maintain the highest standards of training, equipment inventory and customer satisfaction.

The webinar examines the components of the IPAF Rental+ scheme, how it aligns with the construction Common Assessment Standard and the measurable benefits to rental companies. Speakers highlight the advantages contractors and end-users enjoy when using a rental company that holds the IPAF Rental+ standard and how the scheme instils compliance and good practices within a rental company leading to improved safety on construction sites.

Please note: this webinar is available in English only.
