We follow OSHA roof anchor requirements when on the job.
At Aquarius Window Cleaning, safety is an essential part of every project we complete in the Vancouver, British Columbia area. OSHA roof anchor requirements play an important role in protecting workers who perform window cleaning, exterior maintenance, and other building work at height. These standards help ensure roof anchors are strong, reliable, and properly used to prevent serious injuries and death caused by a fall.
OSHA roof anchor requirements state that roof anchors used for fall protection must be capable of supporting at least 5,000 pounds for every worker attached, or to be part of a complete fall protection system designed and approved by a qualified professional. These anchors must be specifically rated for fall protection, not improvised points on railings, vents, or other mechanical equipment.
Under OSHA roof anchor requirements, roof anchors must also be installed correctly and inspected regularly. Before every use, anchors should be checked for signs of corrosion, damage, or structural issues that could impact overall performance. Ongoing inspections can also help ensure the anchor remains intact and safe as the building ages or undergoes repairs.
For building owners and property managers, meeting OSHA roof anchor requirements helps reduce liability and ensures a safer working environment for contractors accessing rooftops. Properly rated and maintained anchors allow exterior work to be completed efficiently and safely.
We follow OSHA-compliant safety practices to support safe access on commercial and multi-story buildings. To learn more about the safety guidelines we follow or to schedule service, contact us today.
