Fall Protection Solutions for Solar Panel Install and Maintenance

Keeping Everyone Safe

The world is rapidly moving towards increasing the use of sustainable, green power sources and, as a result, the solar panel industry has boomed over the past decade. Solar panel installation can be a great investment - both financially and for the environment. However, the installation process can be dangerous work.

Whether it’s your own employee doing the solar panel installation or an outside contractor performing routine maintenance tasks, certain precautions must be taken to help protect them from rooftop falls.

Safety Is Paramount
