Why should I have McAbe, Inc. advise my business with a fall protection analysis?

What kind of fall protection should I be employing?
OSHA refers to guardrail and ladder system solutions as conventional fall protection. Here at McAbe Inc., we specialize these types of safety equipment for your factory, warehouse, or processing center. OSHA encourages employers to choose systems that prevent falls of any kind by utilizing guardrail systems. The team at McAbe, Inc., can outfit your workplace with safety systems throughout to prevent falls and keep your employees feeling safe and, therefore, happier and more productive.
Does every facility need fall protection?
In the US, OSHA requires fall protection when work is being done at six feet above the surface below it. If you’re going to be working at this height or above, you are legally required to provide fall prevention systems for your employees. If you have questions about the requirements for your workplace, we would love to talk with you, asses your needs, and then outfit you with equipment that will keep you OSHA-compliant and your employees safe.
What is the typical lifespan of fall protection products?
How long your fall protection lasts depends on three factors: the environment in which it’s being used, the behavior of the end-user, and the quality of the product. It’s up to you to ensure the first two factors. But you can trust that as far as the third factor, the quality of your fall protection products, McAbe, Inc. will deliver.

But our ladder systems also help boost productivity. When an employee feels safe, they are able to work more confidently and more efficiently. Additionally, there is no time wasted moving and securing ladders. You know that when we install a piece of equipment, it is secure and not going anywhere.

What’s the difference between permanent and temporary fall protection?

After the job is complete, the equipment can be removed. Depending on your needs, our team can provide both types of safety equipment and help you know how to safely use it.
