Our regs up here are more stringent

Anyone in a scissor or boom is required to tie off with an approved harness up here, and to be certified to operate the equipment. Some job sites may be more inclined to insist on this than others, but it's the rules.

Climbing on the handrails violates the manufacturer's instructions, which creates a violation. So does attaching anything to the handrails to support materials, etc. If you get hurt and you aren't in compliance with the manufacturer's instructions it may cause problems for you with your local Workers Comp authority.

The course I had to take was a full day, with a drivers' exam in the afternoon.
