DON\u2019T FALL FOR IT!
\nSAFETY STARTS WITH YOU<\/h2>\n

From ipaf.org<\/a><\/p>\n

Since IPAF began analysing accident data in 2012, falls from the platform have been the most common cause of injury and death when using mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs).<\/p>\n

From 2012 to 2022, there were 239 reports of falls from the platform in 20 countries, resulting in 132 deaths. IPAF\u2019s Don\u2019t Fall For It! safety campaign identifies key causes of falls from the platform, and provides advice about how to avoid associated hazards.<\/p>\n

IPAF\u2019s Don\u2019t Fall For It! safety campaign identifies\u00a0key causes of falls from the platform, and provides advice about how to avoid associated hazards.<\/p>\n

To reduce the risk of falling from the platform, always:<\/p>\n

Plan thoroughly<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Conduct a proper MEWP site survey\/risk assessment, select the correct machine for the work and use trained operators, supervisors and managers.<\/p>\n

Know your machine<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Operators should be trained on the machine type they are using and familiarised on the specific model. Operators should assess if the machine is suitable for the task and conditions, and adequate in terms of reach, articulation and load-bearing capacity. Machine knowledge includes whether personal fall protection equipment (PFPE) should be used and, if so, what type, and how to attach it.<\/p>\n

Clip On!<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 If PFPE is required, all occupants of the platform must attach their lanyards to the correct anchor point. Ensure occupants\u2019 movement within the platform is possible while their lanyards are attached, and do not move the machine or elevate the platform until, and unless, all occupants\u2019 lanyards are attached.<\/p>\n

Set-up and manoeuvre the machine\/platform effectively<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Occupants should never need to overreach, unfasten PFPE, step on or climb on guardrails, or otherwise extend the safe working envelope of the platform.<\/p>\n

Ensure vertical type MEWPs are well-positioned and repositioned as necessary throughout the job, to allow easy access to the area of work to be undertaken.<\/p>\n

Stay inside the platform with lanyard(s) attached<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The guardrails of the platform are the primary fall prevention method and define the operational envelope of the machine being used. Stay inside the platform at all times. Where there is a requirement for PFPE, occupants must wear it. Do not exit the platform at height; unclip\/exit only on completion of work when the machine is safely lowered to the ground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
