The course covers the Work at Height Regulations 2005 and your responsibilities under them, selecting the right ladder for the task, pre-use checks and formal inspection, safe set-up, footing and angles, safe working practices and common misuse, and when a ladder is the wrong choice and an alternative such as a tower or podium should be used.
