Yep, I agree dodger. RC is right, the law doesn't say you can't climb your ladder, I was up mine today, but you have to be able to justify it with a risk assessment. That seems to be the insurance get out. Where could you justify using a ladder to access a window that your wfp won't reach? On a garage roof maybe. You could justify this on an assessment due to short duration of work and low risk etc. But all day everyday on ladders where wfp can be used? It doesn't wash with the health & safety exec anymore.
