OSHA does not specifically prescribe when a fixed ladder must be used versus a portable ladder. However, fixed ladders are typically used to access mezzanines, the tops of tanks, etc. Also, there are limitations to portable ladders and factors to consider when making such a decision, including the length of the climb, how often the climb must be made, etc.
