Abstract: Ladder having a climbing plane with a pair of rails and rungs, the ladder including a foldable work platform and a wall spacer, the work platform having a safety guard and a floor, the safety guard and the wall spacer forming an assembly pivotably connected to the climbing plane between a folded configuration wherein the safety guard and the wall spacer are folded back toward the climbing plane and a deployed configuration when the work platform is in use. The floor is pivotably connected to the climbing plane between a folded configuration wherein the floor is folded down toward the climbing plane and a deployed configuration when the work platform is in use. The mechanism for pivotably connecting the assembly formed by the safety guard and the wall spacer to the climbing plane is separate and independent from the mechanism for pivotably connecting the floor to the climbing plane.
