It would be nice if business owners could depend on their employees to keep themselves safe, but unfortunately, this isn't the case. It is the responsibility of the employer to create and maintain a work environment that is safe as possible. Preventing accidents requires foresight in predicting and protecting against anything that can and might go wrong. Ladder safety is a particularly important issue in industrial and construction environments. Ladder falls are a leading cause of injury and, even deaths, in work environments. Keeping your equipment well maintained and your employees well informed are the best ways to reduce and eliminate ladder accidents. |
Tips for Ladder Safety Ladders should always be free of grease, oil and other materials that might cause slippage. In addition, always pay close attention to the maximum supported weight of your ladder, and make sure your are not overloading it. Remember that a ladder is only as stable as the ground that it is sitting on, so make sure to secure the legs as much as possible, particularly if they're resting on loose or soft ground. For permanent ladder fixtures, the best way to prevent falls is to install a safety cage around them.
