  • Recognize and determine the hazards associated with ladder use in your workplace
  • Assess the risk of ladders
  • Become familiar with and identify the applicable legislation by key sections of jurisdictions
  • Review and select from various suggestions on how to control the recognized hazards and risks
  • Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of your selected controls
  • Directly access key resources for further information and guidance
