Lift and Escalator Maintenance: Global Safety Standards
Build a working method for lift and escalator maintenance that stands up to scrutiny and survives daily pressure.
Course Overview
The reliability of lift and escalator maintenance is decided at design and procurement, long before the first breakdown. Maintenance budgets are cut on escalator maintenance in good years and paid for in bad ones. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place this area of engineering and maintenance work among the areas with the widest performance spread. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting lift and escalator maintenance, ready to be adapted internally. The content is relevant to those who own the engineering and maintenance work discipline and to those who are held accountable for its results. Ambition around escalator maintenance outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of lift and escalator maintenance and supervised application. It treats escalator maintenance as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this aspect of engineering and maintenance work that participants can repeat annually.
