National Ladder Safety Month is observed in March and championed by the American Ladder Institute (ALI). It’s the only program dedicated exclusively to promoting ladder safety, at home and at work. Each year, tens of thousands of injuries and hundreds of deaths are caused by ladder misuse. By providing critical guidelines and raising awareness on the safe use of ladders, we can help decrease these numbers.

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 about proper ladder safety.

Some of the goals of National Ladder Safety Month include:

• Decreasing the number of ladder-related injuries and fatalities
• Lowering the ranking of ladder-related safety citations on OSHA’s yearly “Top 10 Most Frequently Cited Standards” list
• Increasing the number of companies and individuals that inspect and properly dispose of old, damaged, or obsolete ladders
