IMG-20170513-WA0015

Aerial lifts / Scissor lifts are work platforms used to safely move workers vertically and to different locations in a variety of industries including construction, retail, entertainment and manufacturing.

Scissor lifts are different from aerial lifts because the lifting mechanism moves the work platform straight up and down using crossed beams functioning in a scissor like fashion. Accidents occur on Aerial lifts/ Scissors lift each year due to falling from an elevated level, objects falling on them or coming their way, structural failures. electrocutions etc, due to no or inadequate safety measures.

Only trained and authorized persons should be allowed to operate an Aerial lift or Scissors lift. We train operators and workers and make sure they acquire the capability to recognise and avoid unsafe conditions in the work setting and to follow the instruction associated with the machinery. They are also taught  to deal with hazards like electrical, fall, and falling object. Our training is not only contained within the classroom but includes demonstration and practical training.
