What kind of barrier is required for rooftops for workers

Generated on: September 7, 2025

OSHA regulations stipulate that employees on a walking-working surface with an unprotected side or edge that is 4 feet (1.2 m) or more above a lower level must be protected from falling. Acceptable fall protection measures include guardrail systems, safety net systems, or personal fall protection systems like personal fall arrest, travel restraint, or positioning systems. [1]


Important Safety Note:

Always verify safety information with your organization's specific guidelines and local regulations.
