The American Ladder Institute is conducting its 2026 Ladder Safety Training and Citations Survey, the fifth iteration of a long-running effort to evaluate ladder safety training, injuries and OSHA citations nationwide.
Previous survey reports were released in 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2024, creating a valuable, multi-year record of ladder safety trends that tracks ladder-related incidents, OSHA citation activity and the effectiveness of safety training. Findings from the 2026 survey will be compiled into a comprehensive report following the close of data collection. The results will reveal preferred methods of ladder safety education, as well as types of ladder-related accidents and injuries, frequency and types of ladder citations, and how rates compare to past surveys.
ALI is encouraging safety professionals, employers and organizations that work with ladders to participate in the survey. Completion takes approximately 15 minutes; all responses are anonymous and will not be connected to individuals or companies.
The deadline to complete the survey is March 31. Participants can access the survey at surveymonkey.com/r/MD7YTTN.
