New website covers proper use of ladders

The Ladder Association, the trade body dedicated to promoting the safe use of ladders and stepladders, has launched a new information resource for users. Called LadderSolve, it sets out to provide simple, straightforward information about the proper use of ladders in the workplace.

Available via the Ladder Association website, www.ladderassociation.org.uk, and intended to complement the Association's free publication, the LadderBook, it covers everything from ladder myths and misconceptions to simple dos and don'ts and ladder training.

Visitors to the site can also view the Association's latest video toolbox talk covering basic ladder principles.
