What was the ladder setup? Just the ladder with somebody standing at the
bottom, no belay, etc?

Yes but I would have had to tie it off once at the top.


Get the certificate for the MEWP :-)

hints that they're enough of a problem that in a work environment some
training is probably appropriate, and a certificate is probably the only
way you can prove that.

I don't like being up ladders with no backup. For 4m up (feet 4m above
ground) I'd be using a rope and harness.
