IPAF · Harness in MEWPs
IPAF Harness Training
Powered access is a safe way of working at height, so don't take the risk of wearing a harness incorrectly. Used properly, a full body harness stops you being thrown from the platform. These IPAF courses are for anyone who uses a harness and lanyard in a MEWP.
