Scissor Lift

The Scissor Lift Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with the operation of scissor-type mobile elevated work platforms used for access to work carried out at heights. The SWMS provides details of training required by operators, the safety inspections required of the plant before use, and the safety precautions to be observed when using a scissor lift to carry out work at heights (including movement of units into work areas with restricted access).
