As far as practicable the safety of workers employed on the erection of steel and prefabricated structures should be ensured by appropriate means, such as provision and use of:
(a) ladders, gangways or fixed platforms;
(b) platforms, buckets, boatswain’s chairs or other appropriate means suspended from lifting appliances;
(c) safety harnesses and lifelines, catch nets or catch platforms;
(d) power-operated mobile working platforms.
