《安全使用移動式升降工作平台指引》修訂版
勞工處今日推出經修訂的《安全使用移動式升降工作平台指引》(《指引》),以敦促工作地點的持責者加強安全措施,預防意外發生。
2. 勞工處針對近年在不同工作地點發生有關升降平台(升降台)的意外個案,整合常見的意外成因和應採取的預防措施,修訂原有的《安全使用動力操作升降工作台指引》,並重新命名。主要修訂包括:
1. 進一步訂明操作員的訓練要求,包括訂明操作員的訓練要理論及實習兼備,完成訓練後,操作員需通過適當的考核,才可成為合資格的操作員;和
2. 操作上的新增要求:
1. 安裝有效的輔助防護裝置,消除工人被夾於上方或鄰近的結構或障礙物的風險;
2. 對關鍵承重部件進行定期無損檢測,確保升降台的承重結構及支撐結構良好;以及
3. 制定緊急情況的救援計劃,以應對緊急情況,從而減少傷亡。
3. 操作員的訓練及安裝輔助防護裝置的新要求設有寬限期至今年十二月三十一日,業界須把握時間於寬限期屆滿前作好充足準備(即在二零二七年一月一日起實施)。
4. 《指引》修訂版,可在勞工處網頁 (www.labour.gov.hk/tc/public/pdf/os/C/EWP.pdf )或掃描二維碼下載。查詢《指引》相關事宜,請致電2542 2172。

Revised "Guidance Notes on Safe Use of Mobile Elevating Work Platforms"
Dear Sir/ Madam,
The Labour Department (LD) launched the revised "Guidance Notes on Safe Use of Mobile Elevating Work Platforms" (GNs) today to call on duty holders of workplaces to enhance safety measures in preventing accidents.
2. In response to accidents involving mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) at various workplaces in recent years, the LD has revised and renamed the original “Guidance Notes on Safe Use of Power-operated Elevating Work Platforms”, incorporating common causes of the accidents and preventative measures. Major revisions include:
1. further specifying training requirements for operators, including both theoretical and practical training. After the completion of the training, operators should duly pass appropriate assessments to become competent operators; and
2. adding new operational requirements:
1. installation of effective secondary guarding devices to eliminate the risk of workers being trapped by overhead or adjacent structures or obstacles;
2. conducting regular non-destructive tests on critical load-bearing components to ensure load-bearing structures and supporting structures of MEWPs are in good condition; as well as
3. formulating emergency rescue plans to respond to emergency situations so as to reduce injuries and fatalities.
3. A grace period is provided for the new requirements of operator training and installation of secondary guarding devices until 31 December 2026 (i.e. taking effect on 1 January 2027). The industry must seize the time to make sufficient preparation before the grace period expires.
4. The GNs can be downloaded from the LD’s website (www.labour.gov.hk/eng/public/os/C/EWP.pdf) or by scanning the QR code. Enquiries on the GNs can be made at 2542 2172.
Best regards,
