At a scissor lift site, who announces "the floor is going to fall away. clear, going down"?

The individual responsible for announcing "the floor is going to fall away. clear, going down" is the AC, or the area coordinator. The AC plays a critical role in managing safety on-site, particularly during operations involving potentially hazardous movements, such as those performed by scissor lifts.

The announcement serves to alert those in the vicinity that the lift will be descending, allowing them to move to a safe area and avoid any potential accidents. This communication helps ensure that everyone is aware of the operation taking place, reinforcing safety protocols. By coordinating these announcements, the area coordinator helps maintain a safe working environment, which is essential when heavy machinery is in operation. This proactive measure contributes to preventing injuries and enhances overall site safety.
