Course Overview

Is it really that bad to stand on the top step of a ladder if you’re only going to be there a few seconds? The short answer is, yes. The long answer is covered in this training.

Ladders are one of the most common tools used across industries. From the shortest step stool to the tallest scaffold, safety must be the priority. It’s important to understand the type of ladder in use for a given application, and how to properly use it.

This training will include:

Types of ladders
Ladder materials and ratings
and Ladder safety along with the 3 Points of Contact principle

Misusing or using the wrong ladder can lead to injury. Ladders come in a variety of sizes, material, and ratings. Ensure the correct ladder for the job is being used prior to climbing.

What types of ladders do you use in your place of work? What safety requirements are you already aware of? Are you in compliance and are you working safely? We will first explore the different types of ladders you might come across, and then we will take a deeper dive.

Disclaimer: OSHA has several regulations around both portable and fixed ladders. 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. This module does not, and is not intended to, replace OSHA standards or other ladder safety requirements. The content of this training is for general informational purposes only.
