Much of the time, working off the ground means climbing a ladder. Ladders allow employees to work comfortably in places that are ordinarily out of their reach, and help them be more productive. But if they're not used safely, ladders can also lead to accidents and serious injuries.
MARCOM's "Ladder Safety" program discusses different types of ladders, the hazards that can be associated with them, and how employees can work with them safely.
All of the products... original DVDs and full-length online courses as well as the "Micro-Learning" and "Adaptive Learning" courses... discuss topics that are integral to employees' understanding of these issues.
Topics covered in these products include:
- Selecting the proper ladder.
