    Report summary

    Alan Walsh fell from a 2.5-metre ladder while inspecting a fault in a ceiling void at Eltham Leisure Centre and died the same day from injuries sustained in the fall. The report raised concern about a lack of awareness of the safety-critical role of the ladder’s spigots and the possibility that they could be inadvertently sheared off, although their absence was not found to have caused the accident.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Risk of ladder spigots being inadvertently sheared off during premature opening

    Wider context from the report

    “There would appear not be awareness of the safety critical role of the spigots on this ladder, nor the fact that they can easily and inadvertently be sheared off, on premature opening of the ladder. Whilst the absence of these spigots was not found to be the cause of this accident, they may have had a role in the injuries sustained and the implications of the lack of awareness may create risks to health and safety. ”
