The Ladder Association
The Ladder Association
Will be joining The Test and Research Centre on stand 38 at this year's 51ºÚÁÏ Conference in Blackpool.
The Ladder Association is the not-for-profit lead industry body dedicated to promoting the safe use of portable ladders. Members include manufacturers, rental companies and training providers.
We work closely with a number of organisations to support codes of good practice, minimum standards for equipment, trained and qualified operatives, and education in the work at height sector. These include the Health & Safety Executive (HSE), the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS), the British Standards Institution (BSI) and other National Standards Bodies, the Access Industry Forum (AIF) and the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).
Our ongoing ‘Step Up to Safe Ladders’ market surveillance campaign, supported by the OPSS and Trading Standards, aims to stop the sale of unsafe and dangerous ladders in the UK, particularly those available via online platforms.
In addition to administering the industry-recognised LadderCard training scheme, the Ladder Association publishes safety guidance, a Code of Practice and technical notes - all free to download from our website.
