Aerial Lifts

As recognized by OSHA, aerial lifts have replaced ladders and scaffolding on many job sites due to their mobility and flexibility.  While use of aerial lifts may increase productivity and efficiency, many hazards are associated with their operation and use. Some of the hazards posed by aerial lifts include falls, tip-overs, and coming into contact with overhead objects. Our aerial lift training seminar not only covers operation and inspection of your aerial lift equipment, but also includes training that prepares employees to recognize, avoid, and mitigate hazards. This training will also offer aid in understanding the ins and outs of the aerial lift standard by OSHA in the 29 CFR 1926.453.

Unfortunately, most employee injuries and property damage can be attributed to lack of safe operating procedures, lack of safety-rule enforcement, and insufficient/inadequate training.
