New guide addresses rooftop solar installation risks
09 Sept 2024•BlueSafe Team•Source: Safe Work Australia
Safe Work Australia has released a guide to help manage health and safety risks associated with rooftop solar installation, covering work from retail and planning through to installation and testing.
Installing rooftop solar presents serious work health and safety risks, including falls from height, falling objects, heat stress and electrical hazards.
The new Safe Work Australia guide addresses risks across the rooftop solar installation process, rather than installation work alone.
The guide is available to download for more information on managing these risks.
