An anchor for securing a safety line to a roof having a pair of sloping portions defining an angle therebetween. The anchor is in the form of a two person permanent roof anchor for use by the residential construction industry as an anchor point from which construction or contractor personnel may attach an approved life line to which an approved personal fall arrest safety device may be attached. The anchor comprises an anchor bracket having a pair of leg portions disposed at an angle in relation to the angle between the sloping portions of a roof so that the leg portions lie along the roof portions, and fasteners for attaching the leg portions to the roof portions. The anchor further comprises at least one coupling member and a component for hingedly connecting the coupling member to the anchor bracket on one of the leg portions, the coupling member having a formation thereon for connection to one end of a safety line, the other end of which is connected to safety equipment in the form of an approved personal fall arrest safety device for use by a person working on a roof. A pair of coupling members can be provided, each hingedly connected in a unidirectional manner to a corresponding one of the anchor bracket leg portions, the coupling members in turn being adapted for connection via two approved safety lines to a pair of approved fall arrest safety devices.
