Elevators in LA County must comply with California Conveyance Safety Act (Labor Code §7300+). Annual inspections by the Division of Occupational Safety and Health are required. All elevator installations need permits from LA County Building and Safety.
The California Conveyance Safety Act (Labor Code §7300–7324.2) requires all elevators, escalators, and moving walks to be inspected annually by Cal/OSHA's Elevator, Amusement Ride, and Tramway Unit. Building owners must maintain valid operating permits displayed in the elevator car. New elevator installations in unincorporated LA County require building permits from the Department of Public Works and must comply with the California Building Code and ASME A17.1 Safety Code for Elevators. Monthly maintenance by a certified elevator mechanic is required. Emergency telephone or communication devices must be operable in all elevator cars. Fire service recall systems must be tested quarterly. Modernization of existing elevators must comply with ASME A17.3 for existing installations.
Operating without a valid permit: up to $70,000 fine. Safety deficiencies found during inspection result in orders to correct. Failure to maintain elevators may result in civil penalties of $7,000 per violation and potential shutdown.
