From a template to a site plan

Planning a job on a roof? Start with the right questions.

The library helps employers organize safety planning before work starts. These printable worksheets help identify hazards, assign responsibilities, record checks and brief the crew. Downloadable documents remain in English.

For example, use the Rooftop & Fall Prevention Planning packet to document access, roof edges, hatches, skylights, protective systems and rescue arrangements. Attach a sketch showing the safe route, work zones and approved anchor locations. Have the responsible competent or qualified personnel verify the actual conditions and approve the controls before access.

A template does not authorize work or replace a site assessment. Select the rules that apply to the task: construction and general-industry roof requirements differ.

Each three-page PDF includes a topic-specific workflow, a site implementation worksheet and a field check with follow-up records. These are planning starters to adapt and approve, not complete compliance programs.

A program you can put to work

Responsibilities, job planning, exclusion zones, containment, tool retention and safe work methods for towers, roofs and elevated workplaces.

Five printable field forms

Task risk assessment, pre-work checklist, equipment inspection log, incident report and practical instruction record.

Links to relevant OSHA regulations, ANSI/ISEA 121 equipment guidance and DROPS resources, with employer rules clearly identified.

Before using the program

Make it specific to your workplace.

This is an employer template, not an OSHA-approved program or a training certificate. Your employer must select the applicable requirements, provide suitable equipment and instruction, and approve the completed plan.

  1. Assign responsibility. Name the program administrator and site supervisor.
  2. Assess the actual work. Identify objects, exposed people and the controls needed.
  3. Train and verify. Practice with the actual equipment and document the assessment.
  4. Approve and maintain. Review after changes, incidents or identified deficiencies.
