  1. GUIDE ON UNDERSTANDING SAFETY HARNESS LANYARD

  2. INTRODUCTION Safety harness and lanyards are essential personal protective equipment (PPE) used in various industrial applications, from construction and manufacturing to industrial facilities, rock climbing, maintenance, cleaning, and more. The lanyard acts as a flexible strap that connects the safety harness to a secure anchor point, offering invaluable fall protection for those working in elevated spaces.

  3. COMPONENTS OF A SAFETY HARNESS AND LANYARDS A full body safety harness and lanyard is made up of a system of belts, restraints, braided wire cables, or synthetic webbing that wraps around a worker's body, protecting them from falls and injury. • Fall Arrest: Safety harnesses have attachment points that connect to an anchorage point through a lanyard, stopping the descent and reducing impact forces on the body. • Positioning: Harnesses are used to securely maintain specific positions, allowing workers to lean, reach, or adjust equipment while maintaining stability and control. • Energy Absorption: Lanyards often feature shock absorbers to reduce the force generated during a fall. This makes a lot of difference in preventing injury.

  4. BENEFITS OF FULL BODY SAFETY HARNESS AND LANYARDS • Safety lanyards and harnesses are designed to distribute the impact of a fall, either by arresting the fall mid-air or preventing it altogether. • The straps can be adjusted to fit securely and maintain mobility without feeling restricted. • Most harnesses have multiple attachment points, allowing workers to safely use both hands for tools and tasks while the equipment secures them in position. • Outfitting workers with PPE and fall equipment ensures the workplace adheres to safety regulations and avoids potential fines.

  5. TIPS TO CONSIDER Ensure proper fitment: Proper fitting of the harness is important to ensure effective fall protection. Ensure the lanyard is connected to a secure point and is rated to hold the required load. Straps: The shoulder, chest and leg straps should fit snugly around the body to prevent slippage, yet allow some room for movement.

  6. CONCLUSION Safety harness lanyards are essential for workers’ personal safety. From double lanyards to a climber harness with multiple attachment points, these safety equipment helps create a safer work environment for workers.
