Alongside appropriate collective protection, all those working at height must be fitted out with a comfortable safety harness and lanyard that are well maintained for maximum personal protection.
The Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992 requires all employers to maintain fall arrest equipment and provide a replacement where needed.
It is a legal requirement to regularly inspect your protective equipment and check your harness for any safety faults or defects. It is the responsibility of all employees to inspect, record and replace any harnesses and lanyards in use. Something as simple as a small tear or fray to the stitching could lead to fatal falls if worn undetected.
Safety harnesses and lanyards get used day in and day out, so naturally, they need regular replacing. Whether your personal protection gear is broken or in need of a freshen-up, we can offer a wide range of lanyard and harness replacements to keep your workers safe and secure when working at height.
