Mobile man anchors are a great way to provide fall protection on flat roofs where it is not possible to have fixed solutions such as safety lines and anchor bolts or edge protection such as fixed guardrails.
They’re simple, cost-effective solutions that conform to BS EN 795: 2012 E, BS 7883 2019 standards, and they can be installed quickly and easily, offering superior protection for workers at height on roof areas.
It is recommended to have Mobile Man Anchor systems tested for compliance every 12 months, at Altus Safety we would recommend visually inspecting the temporary fall protection before every use for signs of corrosion, wear and tear or damage. If any obvious loose fitting is spotted, then these fall protection systems should be taken out of action until they can be inspected by a member of our team.
Our highly skilled team of operatives will test and inspect all aspects of your fall protection and access systems; we will also thoroughly check that the installed systems are suitable for your users’ maintenance requirements, check correct PPE is used and discuss if any additional training is needed for the users. All of which we can provide as comprehensive work at height safety specialists.
We carry out a thorough inspection and testing whilst on site to ensure your mobile man anchors are fit for purpose. If you haven’t had a system installed yet, then we can also look at your site needs to help you decide which approach is best. If a safe alternative is a better option, then we can discuss its installation with you too.
Once the site visit is complete we will ensure all mobile man anchor systems are tagged and dated clearly, and provide certificates as well as any reports and images.
It’s our job to ensure your compliance with the latest regulations. This is essential if you want to identify potential issues for your workers and help them remain safe whilst carrying out work on your site. And don’t worry. You don’t need to remember to book your next inspection – we’ll contact you at least 2 months prior to your system’s next inspection and arrange a suitable date and time to ensure you stay compliant.
A mobile man anchor is a movable fall protection system designed to be easily positioned in multiple areas securely. This gives workers a secure anchor point from which to carry out their repair or maintenance tasks without fear of falling, whilst also providing the flexibility of position they may need to carry out their tasks.
Regular maintenance is a requirement by law because mobile man anchors are ultimately responsible for the safety of your workers whilst at height.
They supply the anchor point from which they carry out work. If that anchor point were to fail, then a fall could occur and serious injury or death could follow.
A mobile man anchor system should be inspected a minimum of every 12 months – and even sooner if issues are spotted.
You should make it a habit with your workers to ALWAYS check a mobile man anchor out before and after each use to spot any small issues that could turn into much larger ones when in use.
Some things to look out for include:
loose fixtures
loose fittings
wear
tear
vandalism
missing parts
frayed edges
loose connections
damaged PPE
If any of the above signs are spotted, or something else that makes a worker doubt the integrity of the mobile man anchors on site, then the system should be taken out of action immediately. This should be communicated with the entire team and then a call to our customer service team should follow to organise an inspection of the system.
We have a 100% height safe record. Combine that with over 20 years experience, and you start to understand why so many people choose us to carry out height safe installations and inspections at their buildings and sites.
At Altus Safety we believe in integrity, honesty, and the value of a job well done. We see to it that our team members are fully up to date with their training, completely aware of the latest working at height safety requirements and regulations, and have the experience to back up their training.
The result?
A strong team that’s dedicated to safety systems that make a real difference to worker safety. Contact us today if you require mobile man anchor testing, maintenance, or installation services.
