What is the EN 131 standard?
EN 131 is a certification from the European Union for portable steps and ladders. Since January 1, 2018, there has been a standard with two classifications: EN 131 for professionals and EN 131 for non-professionals. The standard covers additional requirements for stability, slip resistance, durability, and stability.

Is standing on the platform of a step ladder safe?
If the step ladder has a handrail above the platform, you can safely stand on the platform. The HSE recommends not standing on the top three steps, while the EN 131 standard requires avoiding the top two steps if the ladder does not have a tread.
