Description
Book SynopsisElevators move large numbers of people up and down each day, mostly without incident, thanks to a strongly developed system of safety measures and the work of highly trained and experienced professionals.
In performing elevator maintenance and repair, there are numerous technical factors, not to mention huge moral and legal issues. Workers need to fully understand proper maintenance procedures so that all safeguards remain in effect. It’s also essential to be aware of applicable regulations, and to maintain compliance at all times.
For those serious about engaging in elevator work, the appropriate licenses must be acquired—an electrician’s license
and elevator mechanic’s license. These are not achieved overnight.
