Ladder-related incidents are often caused by misuse, exceeding weight limits, or improper setup.

The employer must ensure that ladder usage meets the material requirements, situation-appropriate, and equipment maintenance expectations under standards 1926.1053, 1910.22(d), 1910.23, and 1910.145 - along with other relevant standards. Ladders are to be used only for the purposes for which they were designed, must be inspected before use, and be regularly checked for defects and damage - and removed from service as necessary.
