§ 19.12. Ladders.

 (a)  Ladders used on or in open containers shall be provided with hooks on the top of the ladder or anti-slipping devices on the feet of the ladder.

 (b)  Ladders used on closed containers, or for other purposes, if not provided with hooks on the top, shall be provided with anti-slipping feet, or otherwise made secure at the base. It is recommended that some suitable means be provided at all places against which ladders are placed, to prevent the top of the ladder from slipping sidewise. This may be accomplished by means of projections permanently attached to the top of the container or other smooth places against which the ladder is placed.
