Course Overview

Ladders are among the most commonly used tools on construction sites, yet they remain a leading cause of workplace injuries and falls. While ladders may appear simple to use, improper selection, setup, inspection, or climbing techniques can quickly create serious safety hazards.

The Ladder Safety: Construction Sites Training Course provides employees with practical knowledge and OSHA-aligned best practices for working safely with ladders in construction environments. Participants learn how to recognize hazards, choose the right ladder for the job, and apply safe work practices that help prevent injuries and costly incidents.

This training covers every stage of ladder use, from pre-use inspections and proper placement to climbing techniques, maintenance procedures, and safe storage practices. Learners will also explore the role of ladder accessories such as stabilizers, levelers, standoff devices, and ladder mats that can improve safety in challenging work environments.

Designed for construction workers, contractors, supervisors, maintenance personnel, and anyone who regularly uses ladders on the job, this course helps build confidence and reinforce safe habits that can reduce fall risks and improve overall jobsite safety.

Whether you're new to construction or an experienced professional, this training provides practical guidance to help make ladder safety second nature on every project.

This program is available with Spanish, French, and Vietnamese closed captions.
