Overview

ISO 18878:2025 - Mobile elevating work platforms - Operator training - defines requirements for developing and administering standardized operator training for mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs). Applicable to MEWPs (as defined in ISO 16368) used to move persons, tools and materials to elevated work locations, the standard sets out curriculum content, trainer qualifications, training delivery conditions, proficiency testing and documentation requirements. National or local regulations that are more stringent may also apply.

Key topics and technical requirements

Scope and definitions: Applies to MEWPs intended to carry persons and equipment; key terms (operator, trainer, trainee, qualified person, familiarization, simulator) are defined to ensure consistent training language.

Trainer qualifications: Trainers must be qualified persons with extensive knowledge of MEWP operation, safe-use practices, applicable laws/standards, training delivery and evaluation. Trainers may only instruct on MEWP classifications for which they are qualified.

Curriculum structure: Training must combine theory (classroom/online) and practical (hands‑on) elements, with clearly identified coverage for the MEWP classification(s) included.

Theory content (minimum examples): operator responsibilities (see ISO 18893), worksite inspection, MEWP selection, operator’s manual and placards, pre-start inspection, stability factors, hazard recognition/avoidance, control functions, PPE, transport considerations, wind/weather effects, hazardous locations, and manufacturer-specific requirements.

Practical training: Demonstrated proficiency in walk-around familiarization, identification of major components, pre-start/daily checks, route planning and site inspection, set-up for work, full control operation exercises, and parking/securing the MEWP.

Training environment & safety: Theory venues should support learning (lighting, acoustics, presentation equipment). Practical sessions require risk assessment of the training site. Simulators (e.g., VR) are informative but do not replace hands-on operation.

Proficiency testing & documentation: Both theory and practical competency must be demonstrated and recorded. On successful completion, trainees receive documentation referencing ISO 18878 compliance and containing trainer/entity name, trainee name, MEWP classification(s), completion date and validity period (not to exceed 5 years).

Tools & annexes: Informative annexes provide example knowledge evaluation sheets, practical test examples for MEWP types, and sample certificates.

Practical applications - who uses ISO 18878:2025

Training providers and academies developing MEWP operator courses and curricula

Employers/users and safety managers setting internal permit-to-work and authorization processes

Equipment manufacturers specifying familiarization vs. formal training needs

Regulators and auditors assessing operator competency and training records

Trainers and assessors ensuring course content, assessment and documentation meet international expectations
