The Control of Lead at Work Regulations 2002 (CLAW) require employers to prevent (or where this is not reasonably practicable, to control) their employees’ exposure to lead.  This is because working with lead can lead to serious health risks, causing symptoms which include headaches, stomach pain and anaemia, at the very least.  Lead can cause even more serious health issues, including kidney damage, nerve and brain damage, and infertility.

Commercial roofs should ideally be inspected twice a year – performing these regular roof inspections can decrease overall repair and replacement costs by up to 45% and extend the life of a commercial roof by 13 – 25 years.   Here at D-marc we are in the business of providing safe access solutions for rooftops, particularly on commercial premises, with a range of roof walkways and demarcation barriers that can be used for inspections and for maintaining plant and machinery situation on the roof.
