Is there a driving license for working platforms in Germany?
There is no driver’s license requirement for aerial platform operators, or a generally valid ID.
However, there is an obligation on employers to provide their employees with sufficient instruction in operating aerial work platforms (see Industrial Safety Ordinance BetrSichV § 9 and §12 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act)
So that employers can fulfill their duty, there are the following options:
- IPAF training with PAL card for operators and instructors accordingly
ISO 18878:
The advantage of training according to IPAF with PAL card is international recognition. - Training and commissioning of operators of aerial work platforms
DGUV / BGG:
The qualifications according to the training guideline DGUV principle 308-008 are generally only recognized within the scope of German professional associations.
Lift-Manager offers training courses based on both systems.
