JLG Industries, Inc., a global manufacturer of mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) and telehandlers[2], has released its latest whitepaper, ANSI A92 Standards: A 5-Year Retrospective for Equipment Users. The paper commemorates the fifth anniversary of the updated American National Standards Institute (ANSI) A92 standards. As the industry marks this important milestone, JLG emphasizes in this new content that the work of safety and compliance is ongoing.

Effective June 1, 2020, the revised ANSI A92 standards ushered in a new era for the access equipment industry in the United States. Designed to align North American practices with global standards, these changes focused on enhancing safety, improving consistency, and elevating performance across the lifecycle of MEWP equipment. The new ANSI A92 Standards: A 5-Year Retrospective for Equipment Users[3] whitepaper from JLG examines the critical changes brought about by the standards update, including:

• Standardized equipment terminology: Promoting clear, consistent communication industry-wide
• Enhanced machine design requirements: Driving safety through technology and innovation
• Safe use practices: Emphasizing shared responsibility for safety from planning to operation
• Expanded training protocols: Requiring comprehensive instruction for operators, supervisors, and maintenance personnel

The whitepaper also examines how these changes continue to influence industry practices and highlights the importance of maintaining a strong focus on compliance. JLG’s new whitepaper serves as a resource for equipment owners, fleet managers, safety professionals, and rental companies.
