2023 ASC A92 meeting dates announced

The Scaffold & Access Industry Association (SAIA) has announced the 2023 ASC A92 Main Committee Meeting will take place from Nov. 6-9 at the Westin Kansas City at Crown Center.

The meeting is open to anyone who has an interest in the standards that establish consensus (industry) rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results in the aerial platforms industry.

Consensus (industry) standards are voluntarily used by manufacturers, dealers, owners, users, and operators of mobile elevating work platforms (MEWP). The purpose of the standards is the prevention of accidents and injuries as well as establishing criteria for the manufacturers. The standards also aid the manufacturers, dealers, owners, users, and operators of the platforms to understand their various responsibilities.

The SAIA serves as Secretariat for the A92 series of standards.
