Safety of Communication Cable Towers
Recent research and the author's personal experience unveiled four major occupational hazards related to work on telecommunications towers: falling objects, falls from height, electrocution, and animal attacks. They are designed to ensure the structural integrity of towers and the safety of all personnel. From the initial design phase to eventual decommissioning, these. It is not a standard or regulation, and it neither creates new legal obligations nor alters existing obligations created by OSHA standards or the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Employees climb towers from 100 feet to as high as 2,000 feet throughout the year, even during inclement weather conditions, to perform. Some common communication tower hazards include falls from great heights, electrical hazards, dangers associated with hoisting personnel and equipment with base-mounted drum hoists, inclement weather, falling object hazards, equipment failure and structural collapse of towers.
