Painting of ladders which could conceal cracks, chemical attack, wood or metal deterioration is prohibited Ladders of fiberglass other non-conductive material construction are required near potential electrical hazards. Metal ladders must not be used near potential electrical hazards Certain situations may require the use of special ladders, such as adjustable combination ladders, rope ladders, or narrow rigid ladders. A safety review which covers the specifications of the ladder, the use of the ladder, and the overall task will be required when using these ladders Customized or modified ladders for a specific use shall be certified by a registered professional engineer that the ladder, as modified, complies with all of the following requirements: o meets 3.3 to 1 strength to intended load ratio requirement o is used in accordance with the certification o complies with applicable ANSI standards
4 No.: WYN Page: 4 of Positioning Requirements When setting up a ladder for use, the following must be observed: o The ladder feet must be on a firm, level surface. Ladders must not be leaned against unstable surfaces. o The area around the top and bottom of the ladder must be kept clear of material that may pose a tripping hazard (including uneven surfaces). o Ladders will not be placed in passageways, doorways, driveways, crowded areas, or any location where they may be displaced by any other activity unless protected by barricades (such as barricade tape, door locks, guards, etc.). o When placing ladders in close proximity to sprinkler systems or other delicate or hazardous equipment where damage may be done, care should be exercised in the positioning of the ladder to avoid contact. o Step ladders must have the legs fully opened and the spreader locked. o Straight ladders should be angled out at a 4 to 1 ratio. The foot of the ladder should be kept one foot away from the wall for each four feet of vertical rise. o Extension ladders must be secured (tied off) as close to the support point as possible. o When this is not possible, a second person will be assigned to support the base (such as holding the ladder and / or a foot against the bottom). All single and two-section ladders should be equipped with at least a 6-foot long rope with a 3/8 inch diameter to secure the top of the ladder.

Footwear should be free of mud, grease, or other substances that could result in slipping Use of tool bags (or other such items) where equipment or materials may become caught in the rungs or steps of the ladder will not be allowed. Alternative means (such as hand lines or material buckets) shall be used to transfer the materials to the work location. o If tool belts are used, ensure that materials are securely fastened and cannot contact or get caught on the ladder at any time Only one person at a time is permitted to use the ladder Working from Ladders Work performed on portable ladders should take into consideration the task and ability to work within the side rails of the portable ladder. When this is not possible, other working surfaces (such as platform ladder, scaffold, etc.) should be considered to ensure workers are provided with a safe working surface Portable ladders must not be used in the horizontal position as platforms, runways, or scaffolds It is not permitted to stand higher than the second from the top step of a stepladder or the third rung from the top of a single or extension ladder Move the ladder as the work may require; never "walk" the ladder while on it or excessively lean when on the ladder It is always necessary to watch for people who may be below the ladder and for obstructions above the ladder Storage When not in use, all portable ladders must be properly stored out of the way and in a secure manner that will keep them from falling.
