NATE: The Communications Infrastructure Contractors Association has unveiled a crucial new video focusing on the importance of safety ropes in the communications tower industry.
Featuring an engaging dialogue between narrator Sean Gilhooley and Loui McCurley, CEO of NATE member company Beal-PMI, Inc., the video covers vital topics such as the types of safety ropes currently in use, the materials they are made from, their performance characteristics, rigging considerations, inspection protocols, and the impact of weather and environmental conditions.
“Safety ropes are an invaluable, essential tool for workers at tower sites,” stated McCurley. “I strongly encourage technicians across the industry to watch and share this video with their peers. I also urge companies of all sizes to incorporate this video into their tailgate safety meetings and training sessions to better educate their employees on the safe use of ropes.”
