Apparently, an offshore operations hand was climbing a ladder to retrieve an item from a height. No one is sure what happened as the person was alone when the incident happened, but he was found on the floor, presumably with the ladder next them.
We don’t really consider ladders as a safety risk no matter how many times it’s drilled into us. Please practice safe use of tools, and follow safety guides and common sense.

Well, if we are talking about the same incident a couple weeks back, what happened was that the ladder does not have the anti-slip rubber at the bottom AND the ladder was leaned to the wall itself (the highest point of the ladder is on the wall, as opposed to being above the wall edge).
So, it slip from the wall and he hit his head. Supposingly he was not found until a couple of hours later. That’s what we heard while at the platform because the company was making a through-check on all the ladders available those that do not conform to the safety standards were discarded as scrap. And in the morning meetings, they highlighted the issue for about 9 days (throughout our duration offshore, so it might be longer than that)
Engineer1: thanks for the update.
sudah jatuh ditimpa tangga…..
hahahaha, i that’s a classic.
next i need to see a squirrel falling down and killing a refinery worker…. that’s be “setinggi tupai melompat (or something like that) akhir jatuh juga”
can we classify a squirrel as a hazard (that would be a good one)
