Utah Labor Commission

Boiler and Elevator Safety Division

Boiler

Mission

To ensure public and employee safety by inspecting boilers, pressure vessels, and elevators. Elevators, escalators, boilers and pressure vessels are essential to modern life but can cause catastrophe if improperly designed, installed or maintained.

The Division of Boiler and Elevator Safety also administers Miner Certification from our satellite office in Price, Utah.

The Division's challenge is to apply appropriate engineering and inspection standards to ensure that Utahans will not be harmed by defective boilers, pressure vessels, elevators or escalators. To that end the Division emphasizes training to allow inspectors to remain current with new technologies and participates in the development of national codes governing boilers, pressure vessels, elevators and escalators.
