Frequently Asked Questions

This can vary from province to province as they have their own set of health & safety regulations. For instance, Ontario does not have an expiry for elevated work platform certifications. Employers can set their own expiration dates for these certifications if they choose to. Our training course will take your province’s health and safety regulations into account so you are trained to stay compliant.

Every elevated platform must keep a maintenance and inspection record tag attached to the platform near the operator’s station. The unit’s operating manual must also be kept with the platform and stored in a way that the operator can access it regardless of whether the platform is elevated or not.

Yes, it is. Regulations across Canada for working at heights require proper fall arrest equipment to be worn when working at heights greater than 3 meters. Even when an elevated platform has a guard rail in place, there is still a risk of a worker falling over it and only fall arrest equipment can save them from a severe or fatal injury.
