MEWP Safety Starts with the Right Training

Working at height remains one of the biggest risks in construction - and Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) are no exception. According to IPAF many incidents involving MEWPs are linked to operator error, lack of familiarisation, or inadequate training.

The IPAF Global Safety Report emphasises that operators must be properly trained and familiarised with the specific MEWP they are using, highlighting the need for pre-use checks, risk awareness and correct operation practices.
