An apparatus on which a user with hands can stand comprising: a platform having a first end and a second end and a handle , the handle is disposed in the platform , the handle has a first slot and a second slot adjacent the first slot , the first and second slots disposed essentially in the platform's middle , the platform has a centerline and a center of gravity, the first slot is disposed on a first side of the centerline and above the platform's center of gravity and the second slot is disposed on a second side of the centerline and above the platform's center of gravity, the slots are sized to conform to the dimensions of a user's fingers and are symmetric so as to be for use with either hand; a first leg assembly rotatably attached to the platform in proximity to the first end ; and a second leg assembly rotatably attached to the platform in proximity to the second end , when the first and second leg assemblies are essentially in parallel with the platform , the apparatus is in a folded state, when the first and second leg assemblies are essentially perpendicular to the platform , the apparatus is in a use state and the user is able to stand on the platform and be supported by the first and second leg assemblies , when the apparatus is in the use state, the user is able to pick up the apparatus by the handle with only one of the hands without tipping the apparatus , characterized by handle inserts of molded plastic located in the slots , the inserts being configured to cover up any potentially rough edges remaining after slots are formed in work platform decking and to provide a deeper gripping surface for the comfort of the user, wherein the apparatus is able to support at least 250 lbs. (113.4kg) of load. a platform having a first end and a second end and a handle , the handle is disposed in the platform , the handle has a first slot and a second slot adjacent the first slot , the first and second slots disposed essentially in the platform's middle , the platform has a centerline and a center of gravity, the first slot is disposed on a first side of the centerline and above the platform's center of gravity and the second slot is disposed on a second side of the centerline and above the platform's center of gravity, the slots are sized to conform to the dimensions of a user's fingers and are symmetric so as to be for use with either hand; a first leg assembly rotatably attached to the platform in proximity to the first end ; and a second leg assembly rotatably attached to the platform in proximity to the second end , when the first and second leg assemblies are essentially in parallel with the platform , the apparatus is in a folded state, when the first and second leg assemblies are essentially perpendicular to the platform , the apparatus is in a use state and the user is able to stand on the platform and be supported by the first and second leg assemblies , when the apparatus is in the use state, the user is able to pick up the apparatus by the handle with only one of the hands without tipping the apparatus , characterized by handle inserts of molded plastic located in the slots , the inserts being configured to cover up any potentially rough edges remaining after slots are formed in work platform decking and to provide a deeper gripping surface for the comfort of the user, wherein the apparatus is able to support at least 250 lbs.
