handrails on either side of the ladder and parapets on the
landing.
Personal injury caused by falling from a height.
During all work carried out at heights (generally above
two metres), make sure that parapets are used to sur-
round the work area or that individual harnesses are used
to prevent falls. The space where any accidental fall may
occur should be free from dangerous obstacles, and cov-
ered by semi-rigid or deformable surfaces for cushioning.
Personal injury caused by falling from a height.
Make sure that the work area has adequate hygiene and
health conditions in terms of lighting, ventilation and the
solidity of relevant structures.

Handle the device with care, while using suitable protec-
tion equipment.
Damage to the device or surrounding objects caused by
shocks, knocks, incisions and crushing.
During all work procedures, wear individual protective
clothing and equipment.
Personal injury caused by electrocution, fl ying splinters or
fragments, inhalation of dust, shocks, cuts, puncture wounds,
abrasions, noise and vibration.
Arrange materials and equipment in such a way as to
make handling easy and safe, and avoid forming any piles
which could give way or collapse.
