lean to one side or
stand on one foot.
You could lose your
balance or tip the
ladder.
Never permit more
than one person
on a single-sided
stepladder or on any

one person
at a time.
Don’t climb down
a ladder with your
back to the ladder.
You could easily slip
or fall.
Never climb a ladder
while under the
influence of drugs
or alcohol or if your
mental or physical
health is not up to
the task; doing so
may result in serious
injury.
Never attempt to cut
anything on a ladder
- only use a properly
equipped ladder or a
saw horse.
Don’t place blocks,
bricks or other loose
materials under a
ladder to adjust for
uneven ground.
