Description

According to statistics, more than one-third of all workplace injuries occur due to falls from ladders. The number doubles when counting the injuries that occur during work at height. To make matters worse, all these injuries cost more than £60 million per year of the UK economy. However, all these would have been prevented if everyone knew about ladder safety.

Also, ladder injuries tend to be more devastating as the likelihood of fractures, contusions, sprains, spinal injuries, rib injuries, head injuries, and brain injuries is very high. Keeping all these in mind, we still can't stop using ladders as they are a staple in residential and commercial construction, and no work-at-height tasks will be completed without ladders.

If you are someone working at a job that requires the use of ladders or you're someone who just wants to educate themselves about ladder safety, in either case, enrol in our course!
