The prevention of these injuries and protection of employees and the public from unsafe conditions is in the best interest of the people of this state. Elevator personnel performing work covered by this chapter shall, by documented training, experience, or both, be familiar with the operation and safety functions of the components and equipment. Training and experience shall guarantee the ability to recognize the safety hazards and perform the procedures to which they are assigned in conformance with the requirements of this chapter. This chapter shall be considered the minimum standard for elevator and conveyance personnel.
