Safety is always a chief concern in construction. Fall protection is used whenever a person has to work 5 or more feet off of the ground, as stated by OSHA Standards. A fall protection device is essentially a harness, which is strapped around an employee’s body and secured by a lanyard to a secure place on a permanent structure. It takes some effort to put on the harness. Initially, an employee must grab the harness by the metal ring worked into the back, where one end of the lanyard is connected, and hold it at waist height. Tangled ends must be straightened before the harness is stepped into and the shoulder straps secured. The chest strap must then be secured, followed by the individual leg straps. When done, the loose end of the lanyard can be connected to either one of the lower hip rings on your sides.
