National Ladder Safety Month

According to the most recent figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 22,710 ladder-related injuries at work in 2020. That’s about 87 injuries every work day. Join Wayne’s Roofing in putting Safety First this March, and all year long. By promoting ladder safety, we can decrease the number of ladder-related incidents that happen every year.

National Ladder Safety Month is the only movement dedicated exclusively to the promotion of ladder safety, at home and at work. During March 2024, National Ladder Safety Month will bring heightened awareness to the importance of the safe use of ladders through resources, training, and a national dialogue.

The American Ladder Institute (ALI), is the only approved developer of safety standards for the U.S. ladder industry and is the sponsor for National Ladder Safety Month.

ALI believes ladder accidents are preventable with thorough safety planning, training, and continuous innovation in product design. The more people, organizations, and businesses get involved, the wider the message spreads, and the more people learn about proper ladder safety.

National Ladder Safety Month was created to raise awareness of ladder safety and to decrease the number of ladder-related injuries and fatalities.

2024 National Ladder Safety Month will focus on:

• Training and Awareness

• Inspection and Maintenance

• Stabilization, Setup, and Accessories

• Safe Climbing and Positioning
