Does anybody know of any safety requirements for the use of steps approx 2ft high.
Should they have a maintenance record?
How should they be managed?
Any information would be of great use

Standards: BS 1129 specification for portable timber ladders, steps, trestles.
BS 2037 Specification for portable aluminium ladders, steps, trestles.
Legal:
Health & Safety at work, act 1974 Construction ( Health & Safety Welfare) Regulations 1996 (SI1996 No.1592)
Managemant of Health & Safety at work Regulations 1999 (SI1999 No 3242)
But the best way of finding out about it is looking on the http://www.hse.gov.uk/ and then on the index under ladders & take it from there Happy searching.
