Height Safety & Fall Arrest Rescue Equipment

In the unfortunate event of a fall, you can save your workers in the quickest and most efficient ways possible by having the proper height safety and fall arrest rescue equipment ready in case of an emergency. The kind of equipment you will need to have will vary depending on the type of rescue and expected situations that workers may encounter.

As working from heights always presents the danger of falling, it is absolutely crucial to have a wide range of rescue equipment available to address all types of scenarios. At the same time, all workers must be trained in the use of these rescue equipment to ensure that fallen individuals can be saved by any team member that is available.

As mandated by Australian law, all rescue equipment has to adhere to the highest industry quality standards as well as the strictest government safety regulations. Likewise, organisations are also required to establish a comprehensive fall rescue plan with procedures to properly utilise all the rescue equipment available to the workers.

With us here at Connected Roof Safety, you can get the best rescue equipment that our industry has to offer that will not only meet your requirements but also adhere to the highest industry quality standards and the strictest government safety regulations. We can provide you with a wide range of high-quality fall rescue equipment at very competitive prices.

Fall Prevention with Height Safety Inspections

To help prevent falls, you can get our team here at Connected Roof Safety to do height safety inspections of five critical areas of your rooftops – (1) Access Points, (2) Unprotected Areas and Open Sides, (3) Walking Paths, (4) Rooftop Equipment, and (5) Openings. As these areas on rooftops are the most common places where people fall from heights, it is extremely important that these are carefully inspected for fall risks.

All workplaces in Australia that require workers to operate at heights are mandated by law to adhere to height safety regulations. These requirements are determined by the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 or the WHS Act. This was created to protect the health, safety, and welfare of all workers while performing their duties as well as other people who may be affected by the work.

According to the WHS Act, persons conducting business or any undertaking in Australia have the primary responsibility to ensure that people are not exposed to health and safety risks. So, if your property requires workers to do jobs on rooftops, your building has to meet all height safety regulations to not only protect workers in the unfortunate event of a fall but also your organisation from any liability.
