This standard applies to platforms suspended from the load lines of cranes or derricks in order to: 1. perform work at elevations that cannot be reached in a safe manner by other types of scaffolds or aerial work platforms; or 2. transport personnel to elevations where other means of access are unsafe or impractical because of design or worksite conditions.
The use of a crane or derrick to hoist employees on a personnel platform is acceptable only after the qualified person (person responsible for the lift) has completed a job safety analysis (JSA) that includes consideration of conventional means of access such as a personnel hoist, ladder, stairway, aerial lift, elevating work platform or scaffold as a practical alternative.
