The International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) has released new Toolbox Talks, designed to share specific safety messages on work sites, which include two short presentations aimed at explaining the use of personal fall-prevention equipment (PFPE) when using mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) and what to look for when checking PFPE before use.
The presentations are available in English with other languages to follow soon. These presentations join the existing suite of Toolbox Talks, which supplement the simple safety messages contained in the popular series of Andy Access posters for work sites. All are free to download and available to users of MEWPs or mast climbing work platform (MCWP) equipment.

LISBON A Columbiana area man who physically assaulted a good samaritan and took a power saw to his pickup truck, was sentenced to 20 months in prison Thursday by Common Pleas Judge Scott Washam.
Ross Chaplow, 39, of West Park Avenue, said he was truly sorry and was not a violent person. He claimed it was the LSD and crystal meth that caused him to act the way he did.
Instead of the 20-month sentence being requested by Assistant Columbiana County Prosecutor Alec Beech, Chaplow and his defense attorney Chris Amato were asking for help through an inpatient drug addiction facility.
