Escalator is a vehicle closely related to people´s daily life, yet sometimes it incurs safety problems. Therefore, developing new methodology for escalator safety assessment is very important. In the various stages of the risk management, this paper proposes related suitable risk analysis models for the escalator overturned accident. The research in this paper mainly includes four parts: Firstly, surveying field and collecting information to identify the sources of danger. Secondly, giving a safety assessment used for escalator. Thirdly, evaluating the risk. Eventually, devising dangerous levels based on LEC evaluation method, making the accident importance clearly. The practice proves that the method in this paper is a convenient, efficient, effective method in safety assessment. It will help to improve the safety level of elevator in our country and support government´s management.
