According to elevator safety standards, who is allowed to ride a builder's elevator?

In accordance with elevator safety standards, particularly concerning builder's elevators, the correct understanding is that no person shall be allowed to ride a builder's elevator. Builder’s elevators are intended primarily for the transfer of materials and equipment during construction activities rather than for transporting people. Consequently, the use of these elevators by individuals is highly restricted due to safety concerns, including the potential for accidents or malfunctions that could result in serious injury.

The design and operation of builder's elevators are not suited for passenger use; they often lack necessary safety features and are not regulated in the same way as standard passenger elevators. Restrictions are in place to ensure that only trained personnel handle these elevators when necessary for operational tasks, reinforcing the emphasis on safety during construction activities.
