When it was last published, we couldn’t have known the impact the pandemic would have – or the 24 extent to which lives and livelihoods would be affected. IPAF remains committed to helping our industry recover: we’ve supported our members throughout, producing guidance on managing risk and promoting remote training where possible – take-up of IPAF eLearning increased five-fold during the pandemic. Despite the disruption, IPAF still managed to progress key initiatives: we published the first ever IPAF Global MEWP Safety Report, revamped our accident reporting portal and also updated our Load/Unload training. Perhaps the most exciting development is ePAL – our MEWP and MCWP operator mobile app. Launching in 2021, it promises to revolutionise the way IPAF-trained operators store their digital PAL Card, log equipment time and access safety information. There is cause for real optimism with vaccines being rolled out; let us hope we can soon get back to having industry events and be able to travel to meet and network with contacts round the world.
