Penticton Boom Lift Training

Penticton Boom Lift Training - Elevated work platforms, also known as aerial platforms, enable workers to perform jobs at heights that will otherwise be unreachable. There are different types of lifts intended for different site conditions and applications. If not carefully operated, elevated work platforms can result in serious injury or death.
