The EWPA (Elevating Work Platform Association of Australia Incorporated) is the peak representative body of the access industry. Their members include rental companies, manufacturers, suppliers, end-users, trainers and specialised support and service companies that cover the full spectrum of this industry. There have been over 100000 Yellow Cards issued in Australia since the mid 1990's.

The EWPA Yellow Card is a nationally accredited (No: VQA 21629) scheme run in cooperation with Northern Melbourne Institute of TAFE (NMIT) and recognised by all major manufacturers, suppliers and users of EWPs. The Yellow Card initiative meets the two key objectives of the OH& S Acts, being:

  > It confirms that the operators of specific types of EWPs have been trained in the safe use of the work platform.
  > The supplier, employer and user all have documentary evidence that the required ‘duty of care  has been met or exceeded.
