Where would we be without this training 😂

One of the best ladder safety use videos ever. BUT... Ladders should always be securely fixed to working platforms. Ladder feet should always have adjustable feet to
cope with sloping ground. NEVER, NEVER climb or descend a ladder without at least two hands holding the rungs NOT the styles. Always tie off the top of the ladder
where possible to the workface. CONGRATULATIONS on showing workers using hard hats - they prevent fractured skulls should a slip occur.

Tie it off, wind or whatever

Most deaths or paralysis occur getting 6' step ladders as the break point is between the second and third vertebrae where the average neck line contacts the ground

If you're going to fall, jump of vertically they say, then you land in your feet, hit your knees then with elbows protecting your head you roll into a ball then roll and turn impact force into kinetic rolling energy, but better off being tied off on a life line, it simple anchor bracket and rope, takes 5 minutes,

Say you have a roof tie down anchor 25' from where you're working at a roof edge, it's 65' from the ground, 70' from the bottom of the elevator shaft, hook your rope around a roof truss right where you're working, so maybe an 8' straight fall would occur if you fell off a wall, however, if you didn't wrap your rope around a close framing member you might be in for a 20 foot fall at the point of drop in only to swing 15' back into a block wall and then your 6' lanyard, so, a 170 lb guy falls, he's at the end of his rope perspective to his fall location, but the anchor point is 25 feet back, he falls for 20 feet in a swing and smashes full velocity 15 feet away into a cmu wall, nominally, but the lanyard or rope with a built in lanyard system (which should then be only connected to your harness D ring and not your 6 foot lanyard) unleashes, so then a 20' swing drop becomes 26 feet of properly connected, or, if improperly connected becomes 6' on the rope with built in fall arrest plus the 20' of rope plus the additional 6' lanyard you're talking s 15' lateral positional fall at the drop point away from Anchorage, and a 32' drop to take you smashing into a concrete stair it elevator shaft, this needs to be reintegrated in OSHA cottages around the globe. It's sometimes impractical to move an anchor every ten minutes, but wrapping your rope around a close framing member plumb up from where you're working might be in order

Always use a Ladder Barrier when your ladder is left unattended.

make sure its rated below your working load ? clueless

if your not supposed to carry something in one hand while climbing then how do you get a 4ft level or a 8ft 2x4 up there? I usually use a backpack for my stuff because the tool belt tends to catch on the ladder. anyone know of a backpack that can hold a 8 ft 2x4 safely? some of the things on here are ridiculous.
