COP0024 Iss 8

This Code of Practice details the use of MEWPs, particularly with processes for loads that should safely be permitted in the work platform of a MEWP. It includes processes for types and amount of loads (that is, personnel and materials), the use of work restraint anchor points, getting in and out of the work platform at height, and Emergency Recovery and misuse.

Added reference to two guidance documents published by the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF), guidance on MEWP route planning, guidance on travelling in the basket, and on identification of rescue control measures.
