An extendable/retractable step assembly mounted at the rear assembly of a flatbed trailer to permit access to and from the ground to the flatbed trailer. The extendable/retractable stair assembly includes a pair of steps that are staggered and can be extended out of the rear assembly during use and then retracted therein when not in use. The steps can be manually extended/retracted or they can be automatically controlled. A safety interlock is also disclosed to automatically retract the steps when the trailer emergency brakes are released.
