The invention relates to a ladder system for trench shoring, comprising a lower ladder (14) which extends from the bottom of a trench over a lower subportion (T1) of the height of the trench, and an upper ladder (16) which extends over an upper subportion (T2) of the height of the trench up to a trench edge, wherein the upper ladder (16) is a suspension ladder for suspending onto a shoring panel (12). A ladder system according to the invention is intended to increase the safety of the workers particularly for deep trenches. In a ladder system according to the invention, a platform (22) is arranged at the lower end of the upper ladder (16) is, and that the lower ladder (14) is a stepladder or leaning ladder which stands on the bottom of the trench.

A ladder tie off system incorporates a safety strap into a ladder for securing the ladder to prevent undesired tipping. The system includes a ladder having a pair of lateral side members and a plurality of rungs extending between the lateral side members. A extendable tether includes a tensioning mechanism, a fixed section, and an extendable section. A mount is coupled to the tensioning mechanism of the extendable tether. The mount is coupled to the ladder proximate a top end of the ladder wherein the extendable tether is configured for is secured to a static object near the top of the ladder whereby the ladder is inhibited from tipping during use.
