This document: a) specifies global safety parameters (GSPs) for lifts (elevators), their components and their functions; b) complements the system and methods specified in ISO 8100‑20 for mitigating safety risks that can arise in the course of the operation and use of, or work on, lifts (elevators). NOTE Hereinafter, the term "lift" is used instead of the term "elevator". It is applicable to lifts that can: a) be located in any permanent and fixed structure within or attached to a building, except lifts located in: private residences (single family units); or means of transport, e.g. ships; b) have any: rated load, size of load-carrying unit (LCU) and speed; and travel distance and number of landings; c) be affected by fire in the load-carrying unit, earthquakes, weather or floods; d) be foreseeably misused (e.g. overloaded), but not vandalized. This document does not specifically cover a) all the needs of users with disabilities; or b) risks arising from: work on lifts under construction, during testing, or during alterations and dismantling; use of lifts for firefighting and emergency evacuation; vandalism; fire outside the LCU; explosive atmosphere; transportation of dangerous goods.

Introduction
This document was prepared in response to the need to set global safety parameters for lifts (elevators).
The objective of the ISO 8100 series is to:
a) define a common global level of safety for all people using, or associated with, lifts (elevators);
b) facilitate innovation of lifts (elevators) not designed according to existing local, national or regional
safety standards, while maintaining equivalent levels of safety. If such innovations become state of
the art, they can be integrated into the detailed local safety standard at a later date;
c) help remove trade barriers.
ISO 8100-20 establishes global essential safety requirements (GESRs) for lifts (elevators) by addressing
hazards and risks that can be encountered on a lift (elevator). The GESRs, however, state only the safety
objectives of a lift (elevator).
This document provides guidance and criteria for achieving conformance with safety requirements of
GESRs by specifying global safety parameters (GSPs) for use and implementation, where applicable, in
a lift (elevator) to eliminate hazards or mitigate safety risks addressed in the GESRs. However, GSPs are
not mandatory.
Clause 4 describes the approach and methodology used in the development of this document. Clause 5
gives instructions for the use and implementation of GSPs. The GSPs are presented in Clause 6 in the
sequence of GESRs in ISO 8100-20.
This document is a product safety standard in accordance with ISO/IEC Guide 51.
