Course Overview
Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) provide safer and more efficient access to elevated work areas across construction, maintenance, warehousing, manufacturing, and industrial environments. However, operating aerial lifts and elevated work platforms also introduces significant workplace hazards that require proper planning, awareness, and safe operating practices.
This training introduces learners to essential MEWP safety concepts, including aerial lift classifications, hazard recognition, equipment inspection procedures, job site risk assessments, and safe operating techniques. Participants will examine common elevated work hazards such as falls, tip-overs, unstable surfaces, overhead obstructions, and environmental risks that can impact workplace safety.
The course also emphasizes the importance of situational awareness, communication, teamwork, and compliance with ANSI/SAIA A92.22 safety principles that help organizations create safer elevated work environments. By improving operator awareness and reinforcing safe work practices, organizations can help reduce incidents, improve compliance efforts, and support safer MEWP operations across a variety of industries.
This program is available with Spanish and French closed captions.
