Why the other options are incorrect:
• Enhanced air circulation: Air circulation is not a concern associated with walking on fragile roofs.
• Increased light levels: Light levels play no role in the risk of falling through a fragile roof.
• Elevated staff morale: Staff morale is unrelated to the structural hazards of fragile roofing.
• Decreased noise levels: Noise levels are not connected to how strong or fragile a roof is.
