If you’ve ever found yourself asking these questions, you’re in the right place!
What makes a good harness for roofers?
When working at height on a roof, it’s important to have a harness that fits you snugly and won’t slip, yet won’t restrict your range of movement.
Depending what type of environment you’re working in determines what kind of fall protection system you’ll be using. Having an adaptable harness that is compatible for use with both fall arrest and fall restraint systems may be beneficial.
