Important safety boundary
This product is a professional roofing safety-program template and implementation resource. It does not by itself establish legal compliance. Before issuing practices to workers, the purchaser must review and adapt them to current provincial/territorial occupational-safety law, applicable fire/electrical/transportation requirements, manufacturer instructions, WHMIS/SDS information, company equipment and site conditions. High-risk work such as fall protection, torching, hot asphalt, lifting/access equipment, confined-space work and respiratory protection should be reviewed by appropriately qualified safety professionals and competent persons as required.
