California Labor Code 7300+ and 8 CCR Title 8 delegate elevator safety to Cal/OSHA Elevator Unit. Fontana buildings with conveyances need annual certification, state permits, and licensed mechanics.
Elevators, escalators, and other conveyances in Fontana are regulated primarily under California Labor Code sections 7300 through 7324.2 and Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations, administered by the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) Elevator Unit. Building owners must obtain a state-issued operating permit for every conveyance, have the unit inspected annually by a Cal/OSHA inspector, post a current Permit to Operate visibly in the car, and use licensed Certified Competent Conveyance Mechanics (CCCM) for all installation, alteration, and major repair work. Conveyances must also comply with ASME A17.1/CSA B44 safety codes as adopted by California. Fontana Building and Safety reviews initial construction permits for new elevators and escalators, but ongoing inspection and permitting is handled at the state level. Failure to maintain a current permit can result in conveyance shutdown and civil penalties.
Contact your local code enforcement office for specific penalty information.
