You need to hang a chain fall overhead. The rolling scaffold is at the other end of the building but you see a ladder right next to you. What do you do?* This field is required.

Ask someone else to hang the chain fall.

Since the mobile scaffold will fit, go and get scaffold to use. Ladders Last!

It will take longer to get scaffold than to do the job hanging the chain fall. Use the ladder after taking all the needed safety steps.

Proper ladder set-up is critical to ladder safety. How do you do this? * This field is required.

Assess area, ensure a solid stable base, have right ladder for the job, protect ladder from surrounding hazards, secure ladder with tie off, using SLRs with fall protection, get permission on JHA.

Get largest ladder that will fit, tape area off with danger tape.

Stay away from step ladders, these are difficult to secure and hard to fit many work areas.

10

It seems the only way to reach the work will be to use an extension ladder. You have approval and begin to position the ladder. To fit the ladder to reach the work means the ladder will NOT be at a 4 to 1 ratio. Now what?* This field is required.

This is a problem. Even though you have approval, the ladder can’t be used safely. Get your supervisor and re-asses.

This is not a problem. Make sure the ladder is tied into place and set up good fall protection and anchor

This is not a problem. Have someone hold the ladder and use personal fall arrest gear to keep you safe.

11

The ladder you need has product/material on the sides and rungs. What should you do?* This field is required.

Use the ladder after you make sure the rungs are clear.

Use the ladder as-is. You have good boots and the ladder shouldn’t be slippery.

Do not use the ladder. A dirty ladder could hide damage or flaws and this could also lead to sa a slip/trip hazard when climbing or descending.

12

You see someone just climbing up a ladder. They don’t have fall protection but you realize they are just doing a quick task and will be done in a minute. * This field is required.

This is critical. Stop what you are doing and ask them to come down. Help them get a safe ladder set-up. Everyone deserves to go home safe.

Do nothing. This is not your job.

Remember what happened and discuss it with a supervisor so it can be addressed later.
