## Step 1<br />The problem involves a worker who is trying to access a landing that is nine feet above the floor. The worker is using a 10-foot ladder to reach this landing. <br /><br />## Step 2<br />The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) provides guidelines for ladder safety. According to these guidelines, a ladder should extend at least three feet above the landing surface. <br /><br />## Step 3<br />In this case, the ladder is 10 feet long, which is more than three times the height of the landing (which is nine feet). Therefore, the ladder does not pose a fall hazard to the worker.
