Abstract
The safety standard for suspended access equipments(SAE) is developed. During the development of the safety standard, consideration was given to a close examination of the standards existing in other industrialized regions and nations such as the Eu.opean Union(EU), the United States, and Japan, as well as the existing domestic safety regulation. Also, a consideration was given to the appraising of the technical level and market conditions of the domestic industry. After careful examination of the current safety practices and issues, it was decided that the standard under development should closely follow those of the EU safety standard. The EU standard provides a detailed account of the calculation methods, safety and stability factors, testing apparatus and procedure, all under unified framework. A number of specific safety requirements have been modified in an effect to properly reflect the difficulties faced by the domestic industry. It is hoped that the safety standard developed here can serve as a valuable tool for policy decisions regarding worker safety.
