Tennessee Fall Protection Systems

Turnkey Safety Solutions for TOSHA Compliance Since 1994

Tennessee’s economy is driven by manufacturing, construction, transportation, energy, and healthcare, with workers frequently operating at heights in industrial plants, infrastructure projects, warehouse facilities, and power generation sites. The state’s rapid urban growth, major logistics hubs, and expanding energy sector create significant fall hazards, making TOSHA-compliant fall protection systems essential for workplace safety and regulatory compliance.

Since 1994, Diversified Fall Protection has designed, fabricated, installed, inspected, and re-certified thousands of fall protection systems nationwide, including systems in Tennessee. Thanks to the strategic location of DFP fabrication facilities and our ability to mobilize installation crews from the southern portion of the country, Diversified can deliver cost-effective turnkey fall protection systems to our clients throughout Tennessee, including Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, and more.

Industry-Specific Fall Protection Solutions in Tennessee

Manufacturing & Industrial Processing

Tennessee is a leader in automotive, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing, requiring overhead lifelines, modular guardrails, and personal fall arrest systems (PFAS) to protect workers on assembly lines, conveyor systems, and elevated platforms.

Construction & Infrastructure Development

With booming residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects, construction workers need temporary lifelines, leading-edge SRLs, and perimeter guardrail systems to ensure safety on high-rise developments, roadways, and bridges, in compliance with TOSHA and OSHA 1926 Subpart M.

Logistics & Warehousing

As home to major distribution centers and trucking terminals, Tennessee’s logistics sector requires rolling access platforms, overhead fall protection systems, and dock-mounted safety barriers to protect workers handling loading, unloading, and equipment maintenance.

Energy & Utilities

Tennessee’s nuclear, hydroelectric, and solar energy industries require vertical climbing systems, confined space entry solutions, and horizontal lifelines for workers servicing power plants, transmission lines, and renewable energy sites, in compliance with OSHA 1910.269.

Healthcare & Research Facilities

Tennessee’s hospitals, pharmaceutical production, and biotech research centers require rooftop guardrails, controlled access systems, and engineered fall arrest anchors to protect maintenance crews working on HVAC systems, laboratories, and medical infrastructure.

Understanding Tennessee’s OSHA & Safety Regulations (TOSHA Compliance)

Tennessee operates its own state-run OSHA program (TOSHA) under the Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development. Employers must comply with:

General Industry (TOSHA & OSHA 1910) – Fall protection required at elevations of four feet or more.
Construction Industry (TOSHA & OSHA 1926 Subpart M) – Fall protection required at elevations of six feet or more.
Energy & Utilities (TOSHA & OSHA 1910.269) – Industry-specific fall protection required for power plants, nuclear energy, and transmission line maintenance.
Warehousing & Transportation (TOSHA & OSHA 1910.176 & 1910.22) – Fall protection required for loading docks, mezzanines, and freight handling areas.
