Work at height safety begins with one critical rule: maintaining three-point
contact on ladders at all times. Most ladder fall accidents occur due to
loss of balance, improper positioning, or unsafe climbing practices.
The
three-point contact method — two hands and one foot OR two feet and one hand
— ensures maximum stability and reduces the risk of slips and falls. This
simple but essential ladder safety rule improves balance, strengthens body
control, and supports safer climbing in construction, maintenance, and
industrial environments.
Ladder-related
incidents remain one of the leading causes of workplace injuries. Implementing
proper ladder safety training, conducting work at height risk
assessments, and ensuring correct PPE usage significantly reduce
fall hazards.
At
height, small mistakes can lead to serious consequences. Prioritize fall
prevention, maintain stability, and promote a strong workplace safety
culture.
