It does seem best when using lag bolts to secure such an anchor to the roof but even when not screwed to the roof should provide some level of fall safety.
- ozten 1y agoAre these used in practice? In what regions? In Seattle suburbs, I've never seen a crew wearing any kind of attached harness.

It's one thing when it's a roofer himself making the (stupid) decision, but a lot of the guys I see actually on the roofs are non-English-speaking laborers basically told to get the job done and not ask questions.
