Welcome to the black hole of roof access work. In order to work on the roof you must be tied off if you are 6 ft from the edge. Of course you have to be within that distance to leave the ladder in the first place. Yet I can't find anything in writing that allows you to do so. Kind of a loophole OSHA can use if they feel like it.
Then there's the fact that it will take more than a half hour to set up a anchoring system to do a job that will take far less time all while being "at risk" to "be safe".

Tony, thanks for the response. The law states that if you are 6 feet high or higher you must have some kind of restraint. However, if you are estimating a job, or looking for an anchor set up, you have a "reasonable amount of time to do so. We are supposed to use osha standard anchors as well. No trees, no chimneys etc. Basically we are supposed to send three inch screws (12 of them) through their roof and into the rafter. Very frustrating.
