Temporary edge protection and height safety systems are engineered to prevent falls and ensure workers are protected at all times while on-site. These systems are crucial for maintaining a safe and compliant working environment.
Edge protection is essential on all edges or voids during construction to prevent falls. Non-compliance can lead to stop work orders and fines issued by Safe Work. Using a harness in situations where edge protection is practical is no longer considered a safe or acceptable method for substantial work.
When workers feel safe, they work more efficiently and with confidence. Our height safety systems provide uninterrupted protection while allowing free movement around the building, ensuring both safety and productivity. A safer workplace is a more efficient workplace. .
Temporary harness use with temporary anchor points is impractical and a lower-tier safety control measure. Harnesses with rope lanyards require specialized training, experience, and constant supervision, yet they only prevent falls when used in fall restraint—something often unrealistic in roofing and construction.
In most cases, workers are placed in a fall arrest scenario, meaning a fall can occur over an edge, significantly increasing the risk of serious injury or death. Passive safety systems like edge protection eliminate the risk entirely, providing continuous, reliable protection for everyone on-site
