Ladders are found in almost every workplace. Each year many injuries occur as a result of unsafe ladder usage. The four page Safe Work Procedure or Work Method Satement can be used to form an Induction Program to address the safe use of Ladders. Ladders Safety Notes The major risk with using ladders is falling either from overreaching or the ladder slipping. If the work cannot be performed safely then alternate means should be considered such as mobile or fixed scaffolding, trestles or elevating work platforms "cherry pickers". * A step ladder should never be 'walked' by the person standing on the ladder. * Ladders should only be used as a 'work platform' for uncomplicated work with a short duration. * The overall length of the ladder is not the same as its usable length. When used for access to scaffolding, roofs, etc, the ladder should extend at least 1 metre (at least three rungs) above the landing place. * If a person is working off a ladder, there should be I metre of ladder length above the highest rung on which the worker has to stand. (Rungs are usually a third of a metre apart.)
