Self-supporting guardrail: Gain height yes, but without risks!

The self-supporting guardrail to prevent Falls : Falls at work affect many sectors on a daily basis, and especially activities performed at heights. Roofers, painters, material handlers, carpenters-carpenters, carpenters, installers and other professions are exposed every day to real dangers with inadequate equipment.

Falls from a height represent the 3rd cause of workplace accidents with or without
permanent disability (according to the SEAT classification used by the CNAMTS since 2013) and the 2nd cause of death. It also represents the 2nd source of working days lost due to temporary disability (source INRS).

Did you know that in 2015, the CNESST listed more than 13,000 accidents caused by falls,12 of them causing death? By law, it is forbidden to carry out work less than 6'6″ from the roof edge of all buildings over 10′ in height unless a fall arrest system is installed.

Namely:
When workers are exposed to the danger of falling more than 3 meters, the employer must: install guardrails to prevent the fall, or use another means ensuring equivalent safety. If this is not possible, ensure that workers use a harness connected to an anchor point provided for this purpose (articles 2.9.1 and 2.9.2 of the CSTC, articles 9,10, 33, al.1 par. 4 and 346 of the RSST, articles 4 and 346 of the RSST, articles 4 and 51 of the RSSM, article 51 (3) of the LSST).
Careful! In the event of a breach of this rule, the CNESST will stop the work, and the culprits will be subject to criminal prosecution. (source CNESST)
