OSHA and the Scaffold & Access Industry Association (SAIA) have developed five new tip sheets related to the use of aerial work platform (AWP) equipment. The following sheets, a result of the alliance between OSHA and SAIA, are designed to educate the industry on their responsibilities when operating, transporting, and using AWP equipment.
“The AWP industry needs documents like this available for use. Hundreds of thousands of AWP equipment are in use through auction sales, rentals and purchasing directly from manufactures or dealers. The OSHA and SAIA alliance teams worked hard to create a significant amount of safety information. The more tip sheets we get out the safer the industry is,” said SAIA President, Marty Coughlin.
