a.Keep three limbs in contact with the ladder at all times
b.Touch the ladder three times before climbing
c.Use only three rungs
d.Have three workers hold it
Explicación
Three-point contact means keeping two hands and one foot, or two feet and one hand, on the ladder at all times while climbing. This maintains stability and reduces the chance of falling. Workers should carry tools in a belt or hoist them separately rather than in their hands.
