What does the Ladder Safety Awareness course cover?
The online course contains the following 5 topics:
1 – Portable ladders and steps
The first topic describes the common types of portable ladders and steps. It identifies advantages and disadvantages of these ladders. The topic also covers the different materials that ladders are made from and when to use the different types.
2 – Assessing and controlling the risks
The second topic is about ladder work and risk assessments. You will learn about when a risk assessment is needed and the factors to include in a risk assessment. The topic also covers hierarchy of control, collective protection and personal protection. It identifies control measures to reduce risks and also explains the use of three-point holds.
3 – Risks, hazards and duties
The third topic defines the term ‘working at height’ and explains UK legislation about working at height. It identifies the responsibilities of employers and employees and also describes common hazards when working on a ladder.
4 – Falling objects
Topic 4 identifies measures that you can take to reduce the risk of falling objects and also explains why drop zones are needed.
5 – Ladder pre-use checks
The final topic is about ladder pre-use checks. You will learn about ladder standards and labelling. You will learn important things to consider before you use a ladder. The topic covers when you should check a ladder and pre-checks for both leaning ladders and step ladders. The topic also outlines HSE guidance on ladder use.
Assessment
Once you have completed the five topics, you will be allowed to take the assessment. The course generates an assessment from question banks so that the questions change each time a candidate takes the assessment. This makes the training suitable for initial and refresher training.
There is no limit on the number of attempts at the assessment. In addition, the training course gives useful feedback so candidates can learn from incorrect responses.
