As the waste management and recycling industry grows rapidly in response to environmental concerns, RMP look at the significant risks to local authorities, their staff and or contractors, and members of the public.
Managing Roofs in Higher Education
Introduction
This guidance document explores the health and safety requirements for managing work activities on building roofs, taking a close look at the most significant areas of risk, and the possible arrangements and controls that maybe needed.
The buildings and estates of Higher Education campuses can be complex, and the risks posed vary to staff, contactors, and others that access and work on them. It is essential these risks are appropriately managed; staff are supported in undertaking work on roofs and access is controlled.
There may be many different reasons that people access roof areas at institutions, such as:
- Undertaking repairs, maintenance, or installation of building services
- Attending to experiments that maybe located on roof areas
- Accessing granted for other activities (e.g. Art classes to draw skylines)
- Unauthorised access.
Whatever the reasons for being on roofs, the risks will need to be managed by the institution.
