Horizon Platforms offer the course that is accredited by IPAF call MEWPs for Managers. The aim of this course is to instruct a supervisor/manager what is required to prepare for and safely co-ordinate various types of Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) within their control.

The use of a harness and lanyard in a MEWP often causes much confusion.  It raises questions such as:

• Should I use a harness in a scissor lift?
• What type of harness should I use?
• Can you use a fall arrest lanyard in a MEWP?
• Can I leave the platform whilst still anchored inside the basket?

Horizon Platforms are heading for the Northwest! Details will be available next month on Horizon’s latest venture including:

• New Machine Investment
• Staff Developments
