The new DGUV
Information 201-056

The DGUV Information 201-056 (as of 2025) – Protective Measures Against Falls from Roofs – significantly tightens the requirements for working on roofs. Planning, installation, documentation and maintenance are now mandatory, with direct implications for your liability and operational safety.

DGUV 201-056 INFORMATION – WHAT HAS CHANGED?

  • Binding planning requirements based on clearly defined roof areas and usage categories facilitate the selection of suitable fall protection systems
  • Mandatory rescue concept including appropriate rescue equipment when using PPE against falls on site
  • Higher requirements for installation, documentation and maintenance to ensure compliant use throughout the entire lifecycle
