Ladder Safety Trainings and Inspections

Ladders are essential tools for anyone working at heights, whether for home repairs or for professional purposes. However, using a ladder that is not in good condition can be extremely dangerous, even fatal. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), ladder-related injuries send more than 130,000 people to the emergency room every year. It is essential to inspect your ladder regularly to ensure it is in good working condition.

What Should You Look For During A Ladder Inspection?

During a ladder inspection, you should check for the following:

Visible damage or defects: Inspect the ladder for any visible signs of damage or defects, such as cracks, dents, bent rungs, or missing parts.

Stability: Check the stability of the ladder by ensuring that all four feet are in good condition and making solid contact with the ground.

Rungs and steps: Check each rung or step for signs of wear or damage, such as cracks or splinters.

Locks and hinges: Check the locks and hinges on folding ladders to ensure they are in good working order.

Labels: Check that the ladder is labeled with the manufacturer's name, model number, and load capacity.

What Should You Do If You Find Damage or Defects?

If you find any damage or defects during the inspection, do not use the ladder. Mark the ladder as "Out of Service" and take it out of commission until it can be repaired or replaced. It is important to never attempt to repair a damaged ladder yourself, as this can make the ladder even more dangerous.

Ladder inspections are crucial for ensuring your safety when working at heights. Regular inspections can help identify potential hazards and prevent accidents. Always inspect your ladder before each use, and if you find any damage or defects, take the ladder out of service until it can be repaired or replaced. Remember, a little bit of prevention goes a long way in protecting yourself and others from ladder-related accidents.

Stay safe and happy climbing!
