What is the Ladder safe work practice?
Ladders, scaffolds and temporary platforms are where many falls start. A program for this equipment covers selection, set-up, inspection before use and safe use, so the platform is never the weak point.
A safe work practice is the written "how we do this job safely" for one task or piece of equipment. This one is written for ladder and is ready for your company name, so crews, supervisors and clients all read the same rules.
Who needs it: Building, maintenance and industrial contractors who work above ground level.
