Why Get Qualified?

Aerial lifts have replaced ladders and scaffolding on many job sites due to their mobility and flexibility. They may be made of metal, fiberglass reinforced plastic, or other materials. They may be powered or manually operated, and are considered to be aerial lifts whether or not they can rotate around a primarily vertical axis. This standard applies to bucket trucks, scissor lifts and fork lifts.

Many workers are injured or killed on aerial lifts each year.

OSHA provides the following information to help employers and workers recognize and avoid safety hazards they may encounter when they use aerial lifts.
