The person checking a rope is caring for a future nobody wants to test.

Preventive care is strange work, because success looks exactly like nothing happening. The rope that was checked and the rope that was not look identical on every day the fall does not occur, which is almost every day. So the person doing it gets no evidence, no thanks, and a constant quiet temptation to skip it.

Thank someone whose good work shows up as an absence: the one who maintains something, the one who checks. Then do a preventive thing of your own this week that you will never get credit for. Back up the files, book the appointment, test the alarm.
