Why Are Safety Harnesses and Fall Protection Harnesses So Important and Where are They Used?

The mechanism and purpose of the fall protection harness are to stop a worker from free falling from an aerial lift or scissor lift and distributes the forces of the fall equally throughout the body. It is used in the event of a fall and is meant to prevent the fall from causing severe injuries and fatalities. According to OSHA, falls are among the most common accidents that result in injuries and deaths. It is essential for employers to put fall protection systems and tools into place to prevent these accidents from occurring.

Every worker that operates or works on the platform of an aerial lift must complete fall protection training to understand how to recognize hazards and must wear harnesses and other fall protection tools when working on the aerial lift in an elevated position. For any other working environment not listed here, fall arrest systems are required whenever a worker is performing duties at an elevated position of at least six feet, or when working over visible dangers like equipment and machinery.
