IPAF to Feature Live Demos Promoting Awareness on Electrocution Risks at ConExpo | Powered Access

At its exhibit at ConExpo, IPAF will feature a live demo at the Lift Safety Zone that promotes the safe and effective use of aerial work platforms (AWPs) when carrying out temporary work at height near to power lines. This draws on data from IPAF’s accident reporting project which indicates that electrocutions are the single largest cause of fatalities to AWP operators in the US.

IPAF is sharing the space with the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO). Experts from both organizations will be present to provide advice on the safe use of AWPs and cranes, with the help of live machine demonstrations.

IPAF staff will be on hand to answer questions about the operator eLearning module and the AWPs for Managers training course, and to provide a full range of technical guidance, videos, stickers, posters, and educational tools.

Visit IPAF at the Lift Safety Zone in the Gold Lot, booth 1817.
