Fall Protection Question


A piece of siding has been damaged and is hanging off the building. They can fix it by accessing a low roof they can walk on but they would need fall protection to work from the roof's edge to repair it. The problem is there is no anchorage/tie off point.  

Q. Could we use another employee as a tie off point?

A.  No.  You would need an anchorage point, a ladder, or lift.
