Limit 'dodgy' ladder damage
October 1st 2010 'Don't let 'dodgy' ladders shatter
lives', that's the message from
Ladderstore.comfor companies
who don't keep a careful eye on
their ladders and risk the health
and safety of their staff.The
company's message is in
support of the 2010 Ladder
Exchange which started on 1st
September with Ladderstore an
HSE campaign partner for the
fourth year.
Last year 1400 'dodgy' ladders
were taken out of service, with a
total of 7000 since the campaign
began in 2007, as ladder owners
and users were given the
opportunity to get rid of bent,
broken or battered ladders in
exchange for new ones at
discounted prices.
Ladderstore has seen its fair
share of surrendered ladders but
puts its emphasis on education
for ladder users through training
and correct on-going ladder
inspection.
"This year we have even more
to offer businesses and
organisations," says Gail
Hounslea, MD of
Ladderstore.com."As before,we
are taking in old and damaged
ladders and offering a great
discount on a new replacement.
In addition we are also offering a
free Ladderlog Starter Pack
worth £12.95, a ladder safety
checklist which can be
downloaded for free and 10% off
our ladder training courses held
at either our centre or on-site". More articles from Wardworth Ltd T/a Ladderstore.com: |
