California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) Elevator Unit regulates elevators in Moorpark commercial and multifamily buildings, requiring annual inspections, current operating permits, and licensed maintenance contractors.
Elevators in Moorpark commercial buildings, multifamily housing, and public facilities are regulated by the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) Elevator, Ride and Tramway Unit, not by local building inspectors. Owners must hold a current operating permit posted in the elevator, schedule annual safety inspections, and use a licensed elevator maintenance contractor. Moorpark Building and Safety reviews elevator installation plans for new construction and refers operational issues to Cal/OSHA. Out-of-service elevators must be properly tagged and secured.
Operating without a current state permit, missing annual inspections, or using unlicensed maintenance can lead to Cal/OSHA shutdown orders and civil penalties.
