Yes, in Canada, per Canadian building standards, a roof hatch railing must be installed around any opening you need to go up or down from the roof. These rules ensure that falls from high places are as unlikely as possible.

All roof access hatches must be equipped with a roof hatch guardrail for fall protection. The standards to comply with are set by the National Building Code (NBC) and the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA)

In Canada, safety regulations require measures when there’s a risk of a worker falling approximately 3 meters (10 feet). In situations where alternative forms of protection, like guardrails, aren’t feasible or accessible, fall protection is usually mandated.
