Removal of subclauses 5.4.2 and 5.6 and creation of a specific section which defines the principles of a risk prevention process (risk identification/risk a
27、ssessment/implementation of preventive measures) and identifies the key risks encountered when operating ski lifts from workstations. For subclause 5.2.2 Role of the operations manager: addition of a role relating to the consideration of environmental requirements with regard to operations. For subc
28、lause 5.2.3 Role of the driver: addition of the option, when drivers are not busy performing driving duties, for them to act as monitors for the loading and unloading of passengers. For subclause 5.4 Operational inspections: removal of provisions on maintenance which belong to a different standard.
