Re: Health & Safety query for ladder work?

Seibu, Vm do not work at the same height as your previous company however they do have very clear H&S regs for short duration works from ladders. You do not work above 5 meters from a straight ladder, but must use where safe to do so both a micro lite standoff and a ladder stopper. They did have body harness and the reuseable eye bolt however to the best of my knowledge this is no longer used. You should NEVER use a step ladder side on. All ladders are class 1 or EN131 and if you are successful in your application you will undertake full training including H&S
