Aerial lifts are
vehicle-mounted, boom-supported aerial platforms, such as cherry pickers or
bucket trucks, used to access utility lines and other aboveground job sites.
The major causes of fatalities are falls, electrocutions, and collapses ortip
overs. Employers must take measures to ensure the safe use of aerial lifts by
their workers if they are required to use this equipment in the course of their
employment.
