Lifts (elevators), escalators and moving walks - Risk assessment and reduction methodology

ISO 14798:2009 establishes general principles and specific procedures for assessing risk. Its purpose is to provide a process for making decisions relevant to the safety of lifts during the design, construction, installation and servicing of lifts, lift components and systems, development of generic procedures for the use, operation, testing, compliance verification and servicing of lifts, and development of technical specifications and standards affecting the safety of lifts. While the examples given in ISO 14798:2009 refer primarily to risks of harm to persons, the risk assessment procedure it specifies can be equally effective for assessing other types of risk relevant to lifts, such as the risk of damage to property and environment.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

  • mandatory clauses to satisfy,
  • non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
