Corporate Profiles: The Board of Certified Safety Professionals

The Board of Certified Safety Professionals began in 1969 as a peer certification board. Its sole purpose is to certify practitioners in the safety profession.

Safety professionals identify hazards and evaluate them for the potential to cause injury or illness to people or harm of property and the environment. The safety professional recommends administrative and engineering controls that eliminate or minimize the risk and danger posed by hazards. They work with professionals in other disciplines in many different job settings. They work for companies, government agencies and private organizations, or offer individual professional services. They may engage in design, planning, program management, training, audit and other aspects of practice.

Additionally, they apply hazard recognition, evaluation, and control knowledge and skills for equipment, systems, facilities and processes, or in operations, manufacturing, transportation, construction, insurance services and other enterprises.

The value of the safety certification continues to grow. In the United States, numerous laws, regulations and standards cite it. More importantly, many companies include it in position standards, government agencies rely on it and contracts for safety services require it.

Corporate Profiles: Advance Lifts

Advance Lifts was founded in 1974 and quickly became the leading dock lift manufacturer in the country. Over the years, our product lines expanded to include production scissors lift tables, tilters, turntables, dumpers, work access lifts and mezzanine access lifts.

Since the beginning, “engineering excellence” has been the trademark of Advance Lifts products. Over the past decade, we have intensified our research and development program, and the value gap between our products and our competitors has increased significantly. Through our R&D efforts, Advance Lifts has developed our patented “Platform Centering Device,” which is now standard on all of our In-Plant production tables and greatly reduces the single greatest cause of lift wear.

Our “Ultra High Cycle” lift is the industry’s only scissors lift with a 3 million cycle warranty. We also have designed a positioning control system for production scissors lifts with a repeatable accuracy of +/- .030 inches. The point of all this research is to provide customers with superior value and service. Some of our breakthroughs can be applied to many of our standard products, while others are reserved for custom high-performance applications.

Whether you need a standard unit, a highly custom unit or something in between, let Advance’s engineering expertise work for you.
