Fall Protection Plan for roofing, framing, and steel contractors in Arizona.

Roofing, framing, and steel contractors in Arizona get asked for a Fall Protection Plan before the first day on site. This one is prepared from your answers in about 15 minutes.

What GCs in Arizona check for

GCs on roofing, framing, steel, and precast scopes want to see which systems you use where, who the competent person is, how a suspended worker gets down, and the training record. If you plan to use warning lines or a safety monitor, they want the 502(k) reasoning in writing.

Because the project is in Arizona, the plan's state section covers what Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health and local GCs ask about beyond the federal baseline.

  • ADOSH runs a heat stress emphasis program with inspections tied to heat advisories.
  • GCs expect a written heat plan with water, shade, rest, and acclimatization from May on.

The skeleton is authored once against 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M (.500 to .503) and reviewed against the checklists GCs actually use; the generated text only writes the connective paragraphs.

The sample pages on this site are for a fictional electrical sub; your plan reads the same way with your project, your GC, and your crew.

Questions from Arizona roofing and framing subs

What is the fall protection trigger height in Arizona?
Federal OSHA requires fall protection at 6 feet above a lower level in construction, and Arizona follows that baseline. Your GC may require more, and the plan applies the stricter requirement.
Do I need a qualified person?
Only for engineered anchorages, horizontal lifelines, or a fall protection plan under 1926.502(k) where guardrails, nets, and harnesses are infeasible. The wizard asks; if you name one, the plan includes the signed 502(k) section.
Does a fall protection plan have to be state-specific in Arizona?
Arizona runs its own state plan, enforced by Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health (ADOSH), so the plan follows federal 1926 plus the state's additions. Your plan is written for the project address, and where Arizona has its own rule on the subject the plan says so and applies the stricter requirement.
Is this OSHA-approved?
No document is. OSHA and the state programs do not approve written plans; they inspect against them. This plan is prepared from your answers, says so on page one, and you adopt and implement it. That is what a GC's safety director is checking for.
How long does it take?
About 15 minutes of questions on your phone, then the documents generate in under two minutes. Word and PDF, English and Spanish, with your logo on the cover.
What if the GC asks for changes?
