Common Office Safety and Health Hazards - Ladders, Stands, and Stools

Improper use of ladders, ladder stands, and stools can lead to falls. The following controls will help reduce ladder related injuries:
  • Workers should always face the ladder when climbing up or down
  • Ladders should be inspected regularly to ensure they are in good condition
  • The top of a ladder should not be used as a step
  • Ladders must only be used when they are fully open and the spreaders are locked.
