Full Body Safety Harness: Ensuring Protection in High-Risk Work Environments

When it comes to working at height, safety is paramount. Whether you're on a construction site, in the hire industry, or working with elevated work platforms (EWPs) for maintenance tasks, having the right protective gear can mean the difference between a successful, accident-free job and a potentially life-threatening situation. A Full Body Safety Harness is an essential piece of equipment for anyone working at heights.

What is a Full Body Safety Harness?

A Full Body Safety Harness is a critical piece of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to protect workers from falls when working at heights. It is worn by the worker to distribute the forces of a fall across the body in a controlled manner, thereby reducing the risk of injury. The harness includes straps that secure around the shoulders, chest, and legs, along with a lanyard that attaches to a secure anchor point.

This particular Full Body Safety Harness is perfect for use in industries like construction, maintenance, and hire, and is compliant with AS/NZS 1891.1:2020 which is the Australian and New Zealand standard for industrial fall-arrest systems. With its robust design and safety features, it ensures workers remain safe and secure even in high-risk environments.

Key Features of the Full Body Safety Harness

1. Permanently Attached Energy Absorbing Lanyard

One of the standout features of this full-body harness is the energy-absorbing lanyard, which is permanently attached to the harness. This critical safety feature absorbs the energy generated in the event of a fall, reducing the shock load on the worker’s body and preventing severe injuries. The energy absorber ensures that the forces exerted during a fall are gradually dissipated, giving the worker more time to respond and reducing the severity of the impact.

2. Front Fall Arrest Loops

The harness is equipped with front fall arrest loops. These loops provide an easy attachment point for a fall arrest system, which is essential when using platforms or scaffolds that may not offer a traditional attachment point on the rear of the harness. By having the option to connect to the front, the worker can be positioned in a more stable, controlled manner during their work, ensuring both flexibility and safety.

3. Fully Adjustable Straps

Comfort is just as important as safety when wearing a full-body harness for extended periods, which is why this harness features fully adjustable leg, shoulder, and chest straps. This adjustability allows the harness to fit a wide range of body shapes and sizes, ensuring that it provides a snug, secure fit. A properly fitted harness distributes weight evenly, reducing strain and discomfort on the worker, which is especially important during long work shifts or when working in challenging environments.

4. Breathable Rear Mesh Panel

The addition of a breathable rear mesh panel is another significant feature of this safety harness. This mesh material helps to increase airflow and ventilation, reducing heat build-up and sweat when the harness is worn for long periods. The breathable panel adds to the overall comfort, making it suitable for workers who need to wear the harness throughout the day in hot and humid environments.

5. Hi-Vis Webbing

The Hi-Vis webbing in the harness ensures high visibility, making it easier for workers to be seen by their colleagues or supervisors, even in low-light or crowded environments. High visibility is crucial for preventing accidents, especially in busy construction sites or industrial areas, where large equipment and moving vehicles pose a constant risk.

6. Maximum User Weight of 140kg

This full-body safety harness is designed to safely accommodate workers up to 140kg, making it versatile and suitable for a wide range of individuals. The robust design ensures that the harness will provide full protection, regardless of the user’s size.

7. Colour: Orange

The orange colour of the harness provides enhanced visibility, helping workers stand out in high-traffic environments. The vibrant colour is easy to spot, adding another layer of safety for workers operating in potentially hazardous conditions.
