Frequently Asked Questions

1. What makes a ladder different from a scaffold? 

Ans. A ladder is a single tool used to climb up and down to do work at a higher level. A scaffold is a temporary construction built to hold workers and their tools and materials while they work at a height. Scaffolds are usually bigger and more complicated than ladders, and they can simultaneously hold more than one person.

2. What should I look for in a ladder or scaffold? 

Ans. When choosing a ladder or scaffold, look for strong, safe, and OSHA-compliant equipment. The equipment should be right for the job at hand and be able to hold the worker's weight plus any tools or materials. Also, make sure the equipment is checked often for problems or damage.

3. Can I use a stepladder with an extension as a scaffold? 

Ans. No, you shouldn't use an extension ladder as a support. This risky habit could easily lead to a fall or other accidents. Scaffolds are made to support workers and give them a safe place to work while they are up high.

4. Do I need special training to use a ladder or a scaffold? 

Ans. Yes, workers should get training on using ladders and scaffolds safely before using them on a job site. This can include training on how to set up, check, and use the tools correctly, as well as how to keep accidents from happening.

5. What are some of the most common dangers of stairs and scaffolding? 

Ans. Ladders and scaffolding can be dangerous because they can fall, tip over or collapse, cause electrocution, or come into touch with power lines. Workers should be aware of these dangers and take steps to reduce the risk of accidents, like having the right safety gear, putting up guard rails, and working in clear, well-lit areas.
