Kick off your 2025 with one of our accredited ladder training courses designed for ladder users and those who manage ladder use in the workplace (includes two new Stepladder & Step Stool courses)!

About us
Formed in 1947, the Ladder Association is the not-for-profit lead industry body dedicated to promoting the safe use of portable ladders. Members include manufacturers, rental companies and training providers. Separately, these businesses innovate and compete. But when it comes to advancing user safety, we all work together. In addition to administering the LadderCard training scheme, we publish safety guidance, a code of practice and technical notes (free on our website). The Ladder Association currently offers five training courses delivered through a network of audited and approved training centres: ‘Ladder & Stepladder User’ ‘Ladder & Stepladder Inspection’ ‘Ladder & Stepladder Combined Use and Inspection’ ‘Steps & Step Stools for Users’ ‘Ladders for Managers’. Membership of the Ladder Association shows clear commitment to adhere to the Ladder Association Code of Practice which puts safety at the heart of everything members do. The Ladder Association works closely with a number of organisations to support codes of good practice, minimum standards for equipment, trained and qualified operatives and education in the work at height sector. These include the Health & Safety Executive (HSE), the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS), the British Standards Institution (BSI) and other National Standards Bodies, the Access Industry Forum (AIF), the No Falls Foundation, and the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).

First success of the New Year? Shame they didn't show the picture of it after the test... #productsafety #en14183
A shipment of 600 step stools destined for UK homes via an online marketplace have been confiscated by Thurrock Trading Standards Ports Team after independent tests found them to be unsafe. #TradingStandards #ConsumerSafety #UnsafeProducts
