Ladder Safety
Falling from a height is incredibly common and incredibly dangerous, and at least a third of all fall injuries involve ladders. This makes them one of the largest causes of accidents and injuries – both in the workplace and at home; Ladder Safety Training is therefore essential.

In the UK, ladders account for roughly 40% of accidents that are a result of falling from height. Evidently, employers need to provide their staff with the knowledge on how to safely use a ladder, as well as how to conduct a pre-check before using a ladder. This, in turn, will help organisations to reduce the risk of a fall from height occurring.
