To reduce the risk associated with working at height—such as on roofs or ladders—it is important to become familiar with the regulations that apply to work at height.

Typical workplaces where fall hazards may be present include construction sites, warehouses, and factories, as well as locations where maintenance work is carried out, such as regular roof maintenance and window cleaning.

The website of the Administration of Occupational Safety and Health provides supporting material covering preventive measures, regulations, risk assessment, fall protection, and safe practices for working at height and on roofs.
