Blaze Battle: Unleashing the Firefighter in New vs. Refurbished Extinguishers

Valerie Boyd
Fire safety is crucial for both homes and businesses, and reliable fire extinguishers are key. Deciding between refurbished and new extinguishers involves weighing cost, environmental impact, and performance. Refurbished units are cost-effective and eco-friendly, undergoing thorough inspections. New extinguishers offer guaranteed performance, the latest technology, and a manufacturer's warranty. Choose based on your needs, budget, and desired reliability. Regular maintenance and adherence to safety standards are essential for both options. Colorado Safety Supply Company can help you make the best choice for your fire safety needs.

Understanding OSHA Ladder Regulations and Safe Carrying Practices

Understanding OSHA Ladder Regulations and Safe Carrying Practices

Valerie Boyd
OSHA standards require employees to keep hands free while climbing ladders, using ropes to lift materials. There's no specific weight limit for loads lifted with ropes, but maintaining balance is crucial. Fall protection is generally not required for portable ladders unless the surface demands it. Employers must assess hazards and ensure safety, possibly using scaffolds or lifts. Small tools can be carried in pouches or holsters. Ladders must support four times the maximum intended load, be slip-free, and regularly inspected for defects. Faulty ladders should be removed from service immediately. Always refer to full OSHA guidelines for detailed information.
