Many roofing contractors don’t have roofing safety measures. Roofing can be dangerous. According to the Electronic Library of Construction Occupational Safety and Health, roofing is the most fatally-injured profession in the country. This is why any roofer working on your roof should be under the supervision of a safety manager.
Extra Protection
Our homeowners are also protected by roofers who are safe. Our clients are protected from workers’ liens, liabilities, and even lawsuits by the extra protection that we offer our skilled roofing crews.
Our safety measures are not only for our employees, but also for our clients and their pets.
- Fall arrest gear
- Personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Near-miss reporting system

Safety Inspections
Some disreputable roofers hire day crews from the parking lots of big-box home improvement stores. Good roofers do not. They employ the same crews every day. Top roofers like Old Time Roofing are able to rely on dedicated crews that are supervised by safety managers. These safety managers inspect job sites. They also enforce all of the most important roofing safety measures.
- Safety managers make sure that all equipment works properly.
- They make sure roofers are correctly harnessed in fall arrest equipment.
- Security managers ensure that clients’ property is protected from falling debris.
- They verify with the project manager that the client’s home, pets, and property are all protected.
