Correct usage of ladders

Mar 22, 2024

When using various ladders, the structure should be checked for firmness and no damage.

#The foot of the ladder must be placed on a stable and sturdy ground, with a tilt angle of about 75 degrees, and the upper end of the ladder should be tied with a rope at a nearby fixed point to prevent the ladder from slipping or tipping over.

#If necessary (if the ground is too smooth, uneven, or the ladder is difficult to fix), one person can support the ladder to prevent it from slipping or tipping over.

#In crowded places, fence should be used to protect the surroundings of the ladder, or someone should be assigned to guard it to prevent it from being knocked down by pedestrians.

#Do not place tools and other objects on the top of the ladder to avoid falling and injuring people when moving the ladder.

#When using the rooftop vertical ladder (cat ladder), be careful of the tools and objects on your body to avoid falling and injuring others. It should also be avoided for two people to use the same cat ladder at the same time to avoid being hit by falling objects.

#When using telescopic ladders, A-shaped ladders, and M-shaped ladders, it is necessary to ensure that the "locator" is in place and securely fastened before use.

#When engaging in electrical work, wooden ladders or metal ladders with rubber feet should be used to reduce the possibility of electric shock.

#When working on a rooftop without railings, appropriate measures should be taken, such as temporary fences, safety belts, ropes To prevent workers and tools from falling and causing injury or death to workers or passersby.

#When working on the site, one should wear a safety helmet and pay special attention to sharp objects such as spikes and angle irons on the ground to avoid being stabbed or cut.

#When working on the rooftop, attention should be paid to various pipes, hoses, and ropes to avoid getting tangled or hitting the head.

#When carrying heavy objects, it is necessary to act according to one's own abilities. If necessary, two or more people can handle them, or mechanical assistance such as a pump can be used.

#After using sharp tools, the sharp parts should be securely placed and stored separately.

#If you need to move around frequently, you can bring hemostatic patches and other dressings with you for any unexpected needs.

#When working in unfamiliar environments, especially in underground warehouses and residential areas with relatively narrow ladders, it is important to pay attention to the location of fire escape routes in order to evacuate in case of accidents.

#When working near high-frequency transmitting antennas (wireless telephone/pager forwarding stations), unnecessary stays should be avoided as much as possible to reduce the impact of high-frequency radio waves on the human body.

#When engaging in the installation, maintenance, and testing of fiber optic networks, it is important to avoid allowing laser beams to enter the eyes.
