Did you know that all Bleachers in MN that are over 55” in
height, or have guardrails over 30 inches in height are required to be
inspected and certified as in compliance with the Bleacher Safety Act?
If not don’t worry, we outlined the requirements in a previous blog which you
can read here.
You can also read about it in Section VII-J of our Park
and Recreation Loss Control Memo.
So why are we talking
about it again?
In their push to make information more accessible the
Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (DLI) recently created and released
a Fact Sheet
outlining the requirements for bleacher safety.
Additionally, there has been a change in the reporting regarding
the periodic inspections/re-certification that are required to be performed
every 5 years. You no longer need to submit these forms to DLI, but rather
retain them for your records and make them available upon request.
