The Ladder Safety Guide

The Ladder Safety Guide provides essential instructions to prevent accidents when using ladders. Key points include inspecting the ladder for damage before use, setting it on stable, level ground, and maintaining three points of contact (two hands and one foot or two feet and one hand) while climbing. Always face the ladder and avoid overreaching to keep balance. Use the right ladder for the task and avoid overloading. Ensure the ladder is secured or held steady. Properly following these safety steps reduces the risk of falls and injuries, promoting safe and effective ladder use.
