Introducing JCB OSG for Modern Worksites
Safety at height has never been more important. With new legislation tightening standards on construction sites, businesses must ensure operators are fully protected when working on elevated platforms. That’s where the JCB Operator Safety Guard (OSG) comes in, a cutting-edge solution designed to keep your team safe and your site compliant.
What is JCB OSG?
The JCB OSG is an advanced safety system fitted to JCB electric scissor lifts. It provides operator protection against entrapment hazards, which have become a major focus in recent safety regulations. The system integrates seamlessly with the machine’s control box, ensuring that wherever the operator goes, their safety remains paramount.

Recent updates to site safety legislation demand stricter measures to prevent accidents when working at height. Entrapment incidents, where operators become trapped between the platform and overhead structures, are a key concern. Failure to comply can lead to:
- Legal penalties

- Risk to life, and company reputation
The JCB OSG helps you meet these requirements effortlessly.
