Many instinctively stay away from the edge, assuming that the most dangerous fall hazard is the roof’s edge. Instead, skylights are more hazardous because they are often in the walking path of the people on the rooftop, and many do not see them as dangerous. In addition, many skylights are fragile and cannot support the weight of a falling person. As a result, many fatalities happen when people fall through the roof, not necessarily over the edge.
EnduCover protects people from falling through fragile roof lights. EnduCover Skylight safety Cover has been specifically designed to provide an effective solution for covering unprotected roof lights without blocking out the light they are supposed to let into a building. The standing seam and corrugated skylight screens are available in various sizes and configurations to retrofit your metal roof. In addition, EnduCover skylight safety systems are tough and reliable, providing you with years of fall protection.
EnduCovers meet the new OSHA Code: 1910.28(b)(3)(i), which mandates that each employee is protected from falling through any hole (including skylights) that is 4 feet (1.2 m) or more above a lower level by one or more of the following: skylight safety covers, guardrail systems, travel restraint systems or personal fall arrest systems. Compared to alternatives such as skylight guard rails and active fall protection devices, skylight covers are a budget-friendly way to keep people safe.
