Great question!
๐ช Ladders and PPE
are essential for safety in construction and installation work.
๐น Ladders
Ladders are portable climbing tools used to access heights safely. In WiFi installations, ladders are often used to:
- Mount access points on ceilings or high walls
- Run cables above ceiling panels or wall conduits
Types used:
- Step ladders (self-supporting)
- Extension ladders (leaning against a wall)
Safety rules:
- Always place on a stable, level surface
- Do not overreach or climb with both hands full
- Use a ladder spotter for added safety on tall ladders
๐น PPE = Personal Protective Equipment
PPE refers to the gear that workers wear to protect themselves from physical hazards.
Common PPE for WiFi/IT installation:
| PPE Item | Purpose |
|---|---|
| ๐งข Hard Hat | Protects head from falling objects |
| ๐ฆบ Safety Vest | High visibility for working in busy areas |
| ๐งค Gloves | Protect hands from cuts, abrasions |
| ๐ Safety Shoes | Prevent slips, protect feet from impacts |
| ๐ท Dust Mask | Avoid inhaling dust when drilling |
| ๐ถ️ Safety Glasses | Shield eyes from dust or sparks |
✅ Why They Matter
Using ladders without PPE is a common cause of job site injuries. That’s why a method statement (like for Uni WiFi installation) always includes them as safety requirements.
