English translation:safety cage / ladder cage
Explanation:
Yes, "safety cage" or "ladder cage," though it seems OSHA is phasing them out now.

FIXED LADDERS WITH SAFETY CAGES: Standard fixed steel ladders are combined with safety cage protection.

If you are wondering when a fixed ladder requires fall protection, which forms of ladder fall protection are OSHA compliant, or if ladder cages still comply with OSHA’s revised regulations, we have just the post for you.

When a fall occurs inside a ladder cage, it is the workers body that arrests the fall. Hopefully, the workers feet remain on a ladder rung and the fall is stopped when the worker falls backward a few inches. Injuries are minimal when this occurs. Unfortunately this doesn’t always happen and there is a long history of people falling several feet until a part of their body binds through the ladder rungs or cage.
