The exact change
The staircase to the upper level must meet EN 14122 (Safety of machinery - Permanent means of access to machinery) standards.
The staircase to the upper level must meet the applicable national building-code and venue technical-guideline requirements for public-access stairs (commonly informed by EN 14122 dimensional principles, though that standard is formally written for machinery access rather than public visitor stairs).
Suggested change
The staircase to the upper level must meet the applicable national building-code and venue technical-guideline requirements for public-access stairs (commonly informed by EN 14122 dimensional principles, though that standard is formally written for machinery access rather than public visitor stairs).
Why this is better
EN 14122 ("Safety of machinery — Permanent means of access to machinery") is scoped to access infrastructure that is part of a machine or built specifically to access machinery/industrial equipment, not general public-access staircases on exhibition stands. Applying it as the compliance standard for visitor-facing exhibition stand stairs is a mismatched citation; in practice, public-access stand stairs/guardrails are governed by national building/fire codes and venue-specific technical guidelines, not this machinery-access standard.
