Frequently Asked Questions
What is edge protection in roofing?
Edge protection refers to systems like safety rails or scaffolding that prevent falls during roofing work. It’s a legal requirement on most worksites where there’s a risk of falling from height. These systems are installed before work begins and remain in place until the job is finished, ensuring a safe environment for all workers and trades on site.
Is edge protection mandatory?
Yes, in most cases, edge protection is mandatory for roofing work performed above a certain height — usually two metres or more. It must meet national safety standards and be installed by trained professionals. These systems help reduce workplace accidents and ensure compliance with occupational health and safety regulations on residential and commercial building sites.
What types of edge protection are available?
Common types include guardrails, temporary scaffold systems, and static lines. The best choice depends on the height, structure, and scope of the roofing job. Guardrails are often used on pitched roofs, while scaffolding suits multi-storey access. All systems should comply with Australian Standards and be installed securely to protect workers during construction or maintenance.
