Does your roof meet safety requirements?

By Anna Lockhart.  

Plan ahead and make sure your building meets current OSHA regulations and standard safety practices.  

For building owners, ensuring that your roof is properly fitted with the necessary fall protection systems and guard rails is crucial. As falls from rooftops remain as the singular most deadly accident in construction work, the diligence of both contractors and building owners in following standard procedures and investing in proper equipment is highly valued. Industry leading manufacturers, like Tremco, are dedicated to educating and facilitating building owners with the necessary information and products needed to ensure that a roof is properly maintained and equipped with safety precautions.  

As a building owner, keeping fall protection in mind is a priority and it is important to have a plan in place for meeting and maintaining OSHA standards. Be it implementing new rules and staff training or investing in the correct safety and fall prevention equipment, providing a proactive hand in this process can save the life of a roofer, an employee or even yourself.
