According to the National Safety Council (NSC), about 175,000 people are injured on ladders each year, requiring a trip to the hospital.
Check out this tip sheet from the NSC to learn best practices on how to use ladders safely.
All employees are encouraged to submit safety shares for inclusion in the Safety Share Library. Submission details are available on Inside Argonne.
Each month a safety share submitted by an individual will be selected to receive a Spot Award for demonstrated safety leadership. The Spot Award program offers three award levels: gold ($100), silver ($50) and bronze ($25).
