@soulmeet5: Safety Harness Use for Work at Height A full-body safety harness is a critical fall protection device used when working at height. It must always be connected to a secure anchorage point using a shock-absorbing lanyard or self-retracting lifeline (SRL). Before use * Inspect the harness for cuts, tears, burns, frayed stitching, or damaged buckles. * Check the lanyard, hooks, and shock absorber for damage. * Ensure the inspection tag is present and the equipment is within its inspection period. * Do not use damaged or defective equipment. How to wear the harness 1. Hold the harness by the D-ring and untangle all straps. 2. Put on the shoulder straps. 3. Fasten and tighten the leg straps. 4. Fasten the chest strap at mid-chest level. 5. Adjust all straps so the harness fits snugly but comfortably. 6. Ensure the dorsal D-ring is positioned between the shoulder blades. Safe use * Attach the lanyard only to an approved anchor point. * Maintain 100% tie-off when moving between anchor points. * Keep the anchor point above shoulder level whenever possible to reduce fall distance. * Never attach to handrails, pipes, scaffolding braces, or other non-certified structures. * Minimize slack in the lanyard. * Ensure there is sufficient fall clearance below the work area. PPE requirements * Full-body safety harness * Shock-absorbing lanyard or SRL * Safety helmet with chin strap * Safety shoes with slip-resistant soles * Suitable gloves Common mistakes to avoid * Using a body belt instead of a full-body harness. * Connecting to an unsuitable anchor point. * Loose or twisted straps. * Using damaged or expired equipment. * Working at height without being connected.#SafetyProfessional #OccupationalSafety #WorkAtHeight #SafetyFirst #SafetyFirst
