All roofing projects come with the risk of injuries and structural damage. The risks are higher for most commercial roofing installations due to the large size of the structures and the installation methods used. It’s essential to choose a partner that is committed to commercial roofing safety compliance to ensure everything goes smoothly. Delta Innovative Services follows only the most stringent safety protocols for roofing projects, keeping everything we do to OSHA standards or higher. Find out how our unwavering commitment to safety can make all the difference for your next commercial roofing project around Kansas City.

The Importance of OSHA Compliance in Commercial Roofing

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, sets safety standards for workplaces and has the ability to fine businesses that put workers at risk for injury or death. Roofing can pose many safety hazards, so there’s a particularly high risk of fines and other penalties if there is an accident during a project. 

Even roof repairs put workers at risk, both from the crew on the roof and any workers in your facility during the process. Complying with OSHA standards ensures a safe work environment, preventing accidents and reducing the risk of fines that can include penalties against the owner of the facility. Protect yourself by choosing a roofing company that understands the importance of OSHA compliance and is actively pursuing it on every job.

Key Safety Protocols for Roofers: How Delta Sets Industry Standards

We have specific safety protocols for roofers that we employ, ensuring the lowest possible risk of damage or falls every day. It all starts with thorough equipment checks to verify that everything is operating properly. From the torches required for modified bitumen roofing installation to the lifts we use to access your roof, everything is inspected and routinely maintained for safe performance. We use the latest technology to track work and ensure workers handling different tasks aren’t putting each other at risk as well.

We also implement numerous fall prevention strategies tailored to the unique risks of each project. This may include a mix of equipment like full body harnesses, guard rails, fall arrest systems, netting, and more. We’ll also update the workers on the project about specific risks so they work with awareness every day that they’re on the site. 

Roofing project risk management is one of our specialties. While other roofing companies often fail to designate a safety manager to oversee OSHA compliance, we appoint a single point of contact for every project so you can ask any questions you might have and get prompt answers.

Ongoing training programs keep our entire team updated on the latest roofing safety best practices. New workers are brought up to speed with a complete hands-on immersion in our safety culture. You can rest assured that only the most skilled team members will tackle risky situations, backed by the best safety equipment available for roofing work. We can even provide a complete written safety plan with details on how we’ll tackle each OSHA compliance challenge to reassure you.

Role of OSHA-Certified Professionals in Delta’s Approach

Choosing OSHA-certified roofing contractors does more than just protect you from issues with fines. It also prevents damage to your structures during the roofing process and ensures the safety of any workers present in the facility while the roof is being repaired or replaced. Maintaining a safe environment is paramount when handling large scale commercial roofing and re-roofing projects. 

Most commercial facilities can’t completely shut down during the work, so we do our best to minimize risks and hazards. Having in-house safety professionals supports Delta’s goal of delivering safe, compliant projects. That’s how we earned our reputation for providing some of the highest quality commercial roofing services in Kansas City.

The Impact of Safety on Project Success and Client Confidence

The Delta commitment to commercial roofing safety compliance also keeps the project running smoothly. Every injury, accident, or incident that damages the structure causes a delay. Some accidents can lead to long-term delays if OSHA gets involved and wants to investigate. Our safety driven practices increase client confidence by providing uninterrupted project delivery. It’s how we manage to deliver high-quality results on time for as many projects as possible. That’s the power of active roofing project risk management. You’ll experience the difference from the start, from how we arrange the delivery of the materials so they’re not blocking your use of the facility to the management of every scrap of waste.

Delta Innovative Services is the team you can trust to provide you with the safety compliance you need for your major commercial roofing project. This is part of our goal for reliability and on-time delivery for all work. Contact us today for safe, compliant commercial roofing solutions that won’t put your workforce or structure at risk.
