We have recently been advised by our lift maintenance company of a safety directive issued by Jabatan Keselamatan Dan Kesihatan Pekerjann (JPKK) aka DOSH which states that all lifts must now be fitted with the following:
Car Locking Device
The device will prevent the car doors from being forced open from the inside when the car is between floors. This will prevent trapped passengers from exposing themselves to the danger of falling down the lift shaft or getting crushed when trying to escape.
Emergency Battery Operated Power Supply (EBOPS)
This is to keep the lights and fan running for a minimum of 2 hours in the event of a power failure thus reducing the anxiety and distress of trapped passengers.
As this is both a legal requirement and common sense the JMC have agreed to implement this asap at a cost of approximately RM4600 per lift by utilising the sinking fund.
A copy of the DOSH circular is available to download here: DOSH Circular JKPP IS 127/8/1 -Klt.23 (20)

ReplyDeleteMost people put a high priority on feeling safe and secure in their own homes,
ReplyDeleteso taking measures to increase safety and protect against intruders when you are
at home and burglars when you are away is important and home security door locks
are a major consideration. Both the kind of lock and the way it is mounted matter.
