About this listen

Safety Talks. Ladder fall incident. Here I discuss a recent accident that occurred to me. It was a fall and injury caused by a series of unsafe actions. I was in a hurry, stressed, with too many activities scheduled for one day, and under the influence of caffeine and sugar. I took several unsafe decisions, including the unsafe practices during elevated work, standing on furniture, using a ladder on a slippery floor, and using a ladder in an unsafe manner. These bad decisions resulted in the ladder slipping from the wall, on the slippery floor, and I fell with the ladder and hit the ground hurting my back, neck and buttocks. Here's the full story so it doesn't happen to you. Share this story so it doesn't happen to anyone you know.
