Too many businesses are failing to
have their roof systems on their
buildings tested and inspected
regularly according to fall protection
specialist Eurosafe Solutions.
John Boyle, Eurosafe Solutions, said: "Some businesses still don't realise how much of a risk they are taking by not keeping their fall protection systems fully tested and up to date with inspections. Different fall protection systems have different requirements and frequencies for their testing and inspection and failure to keep these up to date can mean huge risks to employees and contractors accessing the roof. The best approach is to use a planned approach to maintenance as with other building services - it's equally as important and could save someone's life."
