Ladder & Staircase
Fall prevention for ladders and staircases is crucial for maintaining safety in both residential and workplace settings. To reduce the risk of falls, ensure ladders are stable, have secure footing, and are inspected regularly for defects. Use ladders with safety features like slip-resistant steps and properly secured top rungs. For staircases, install handrails on both sides, ensure proper lighting, and keep stairs clear of obstacles. Anti-slip treads and well-maintained surfaces also help prevent accidents. Educating individuals on safe ladder use and staircase navigation, along with routine maintenance, significantly lowers the risk of falls and injuries.
