Aerial and 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.
Aerial and 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 because the lifting mechanism moves the work platform straight up and down using crossed beams functioning in a scissor like fashion.
Although scissor lifts present hazards similar to scaffolding when extended and stationary, using scissor lifts safely depends on considering equipment capabilities, limitations and safe practices.
Employers must comply with the following OSHA standards (29 CFR) to protect workers from hazards associated with scissor lifts.
