IPAF launches ‘High Voltage!’ safety campaign

The International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) has launched a new targeted safety campaign, ‘High Voltage!’

Power lines can kill and are a danger when working at height using mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs).

IPAF’s ‘High Voltage!’ safety campaign identifies the hazards and risks associated with working near power lines.

In fact, there has been a notable increase in power-line-related electrocutions and electric shocks since 2015.

Therefore, the campaign explains how to work safely around power lines to help workers prevent the risks.
