Page 5: Personal Protection Equipment (Ppe)
Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) It is of utmost importance in the design of personal fall arrest systems to understand the nature and type of work being performed in an area prior to the installation of fall protection equipment. Anchorages should be located such that they are directly overhead (or as much so as possible) to help reduce or eliminate the possibility of a... - Page 6 Always wear a full body harness for fall arrest. The user should attach their fall arrest device (lanyard, SRL, or another device as directed and approved by SAFEWAZE™ ) to the back d-ring of the harness. This prevents the lanyard getting in the way during movement and, in the event of a fall, ensures minimum trauma to the user.
- Page 7 Always check all PPE and equipment before attaching to the fall protection or performing any work, to ensure that all components are in working order and free from defects or damage. If any defects or damage is noted, the equipment should not be used and SAFEWAZE™ should be notified for assessment and repairs.
