2 Minute Toolbox Talk: Walking-Working Surfaces - Slopes, Ramps, and Dockboards

Floors with a slope should be coated with a slip-resistant coating to prevent falls. A ramp is an inclined walking-working surface that is used to gain access to another level. Dockboards are a great example. A dockboard is a portable or fixed device used to span a gap or compensate for a difference in height between a loading platform and a transport vehicle.
