HS02: ½ Day Inspection & Use of Portable & Stepladders Course - On Site

Purpose of the course
This ½ day course is designed to provide 3 hours of classroom and practical instruction with assessment so that delegates are able to select, inspect, check and use appropriate portable ladders or stepladders when carrying out short duration low risk work at height activities in accordance with the Work at Height Regulations 2005 and HSE INDG455 - Safe use of ladders and stepladders.

On completion of the course, delegates should be able to inspect typical standard portable ladders and step ladders to ensure they are fit for purpose, identify faults, record the results and quarantine ladders that do not meet the requirements of the inspection regime.
