    A worker slipped while climbing onto a 1 meter tall chimney foundation during a de-shuttering activity. He used a wooden runner piece instead of a ladder in violation of safety procedures. He was able to catch himself on reinforcement bars to prevent falling. The incident highlighted the need to always use ladders for heights, maintain three-point contact while climbing, ensure competent supervision, and provide training to all workers on safe climbing procedures. Post-incident controls included training, using ladders and maintaining three-point contact, assigning competent workers, and ensuring effective supervision.
