Elevator Escalator Program

The Elevator Escalator Program provides administrative assistance, education, training, and awareness within the State of Oklahoma to ensure public safety when operating elevators and escalators.

Our Commitment

We strive to deliver professional, reliable, and efficient services for those governed and affected by the elevator and escalator industries, in compliance with state statutes, to promote a safer Oklahoma.

Program Services

The Department of Labor has jurisdiction to ensure that elevators, escalators, moving sidewalks, and similar devices are installed, maintained, and regularly inspected in compliance with recognized safety standards and codes. Our key responsibilities include:

  • Licensing: All elevator contractors, mechanics, and inspectors must be licensed by the state. Elevator inspectors are required to pass national standards evaluations and obtain continuing education credits.
  • Inspections: Inspectors conduct annual, biennial, or triennial inspections of over 6,200 elevators in the state, excluding the City of Oklahoma City, which conducts its own inspections.
  • Annual Summit: We host an annual summit to inform industry members of changes to statutes/rules, industry trends, and safety concerns.
