New Guidance in the use of Safety Harnesses and Lanyards in MEWPs
IPAF
have produced a Technical Guidance Note: H1 - Safety harnesses in
mobile elevating work platforms - which was produced by the Powered
Access Interest Group (PAIG). PAIG is a joint committee of IPAF
and the Construction Plant-hire Association, with representatives
from hire companies and the Health & Safety Executive.
Our Technical Updates section gives full details of this new Technical
Guidance Note, together with links to relevant documents and websites. Click here for full details...

Our IPAF Safety Harness training course
will ensure that MEWP operators are clear about the requirements
for the correct selection, inspection, fitting and adjusting of
Safety Harnesses. We have already incorporated the revised guidance
outlined above; further details may be found here:
