When it comes to your metal structure, warehouse or factory building, the most important ongoing concern is the safety of the workers inside. Keeping employees safe, healthy and happy should be top-of-mind when they are inside your building, but what about outside? When employees are on your roof – and you know they will be – what I keeping them safe up there? OSHA has very specific guidelines for worker safety, and Design Components Inc.’s METALWALK® rooftop walkway system meets or exceeds all of them. METALWALK® and OSHA are a match made in heaven.
Examining METALWALK® and OSHA standards
Of course you would do everything in your power to keep your workers safe, but OSHA standards are in place to keep everyone in line with workplace safety best practices. Failure to follow these guidelines, for whatever reason, could lead to financial and criminal penalties against you, the employer, or worse, accident, injury or even the death of an employee. Needless to say, following OSHA standards in your metal building should be a no-brainer.
But how do METALWALK® and OSHA work together? The METALWALK® rooftop walkway system is the gold standard in getting your employees around on your rooftop, where they could be cleaning, servicing equipment; anything that needs doing above your building, the METALWALK® rooftop walkway system can handle it. In conjunction with our safety handrail system, the METALWALK® rooftop walkway system does not penetrate any standing seam metal roof panels and, of course, is fully tested to be OSHA compliant.
