  • Is rope access safe?

    Yes - Rope access is one of the safest methods for working at height—engineered on a foundation of redundant safety systems, stringent training standards, and proactive risk management. 


    For example, IRATA’s 2022 safety analysis showed just three rope access–related fatalities across over 21 million working hours across the globe. Injury rates reported by IRATA are also substantially lower than those seen across industries involving scaffolding, ladders, or mobile platforms. 


    Certified technicians operate under clear safety procedures—like  RAMS, and ICOP —and Level 3 supervisors oversee every project to ensure best practice. At Dangle Academy, our training instills these same principles: comprehensive risk assessment, emergency preparedness, and safety-first operations are embedded in every course we deliver.
