CAP
Thorough examination is an Assessment of the overall safety of the MEWP which should detect faults or defects in sufficient time to allow remedial action to be taken. The IPAF Competent Assessed Persons (CAP) provides guidance for platform engineers on compliance with regulatory requirements and to offer documented evidence that individuals can be regarded as Competent persons to plan, manage or carry out thorough examinations of powered access equipment within the context of current legislations (including WAHR, LOLER and PUWER, the Provision and Use of Work Equipment regulations 1998)
