Safe Use of Ladders: Operational Process Confirmation
by Rob Feasey, from the Community
This operational process confirmation guides the safe use, storage, and care of portable ladders for working at heights. It covers hazard assessment and controls, considering safer access alternatives, confirming worker training, selecting the correct ladder type, and conducting formal inspections at least every six months. It also outlines safe tool carrying, tagging damaged ladders out of service, maintaining three points of contact, proper storage, and setup requirements such as extending at least 1 meter above the platform and a 1:4 angle.
