This Permit to Use a Podium template helps contractors and site supervisors control work at height activities involving podium steps and platforms. It covers initial actions, competency checks (e.g., PASMA/CSCS), issue and receipt of permits, daily inspection sign-offs, and final closure. The template guides environmental and physical checks, including ground stability, castor brakes, step locks, deck condition, bracing patterns, and frame locking devices. It supports compliance with Work at Height regulations and promotes safer, documented operations across construction sites and subcontracted works.

Use this template to standardize inspections, document issues, and improve compliance with site safety procedures for low-level access equipment.
