Our rigging team hold IRATA rope access qualifications; meanwhile, dual-rope setups are an overkill in our industry, since none of our tasks are positioned so far from structure that anchoring is impractical. Jobs never ever require dual-rope systems; a single static line with twin scaffold hooks and an adjustable positioning lanyard provides full compliance and control. A capability uncommon in telecom, yet well-proven in heavy industry. It enables environementally friendly methods & delivery of externals installation without relying on overpriced Elevated Work Platforms provision, meanwhile, strictly when safe to do so.
In fact, compared to EWP access, IRATA’s global accident rate remains below 0.5 per 100,000 hours worked, with one report citing just 0.28 for all on-rope injuries. A stark contrast to incidents caused by poorly serviced machinery worldwide.
