Working at heights presents significant fall hazards. Fall protection systems are critical to prevent injuries and fatalities. These systems include measures such as guardrails, safety nets, and personal fall arrest systems (PFAS). PFAS consist of a harness, lanyard, and anchorage point, designed to arrest a fall and limit the impact force on the worker. Proper training on the selection, use, and inspection of fall protection equipment is essential. Implementing a comprehensive fall protection plan, including regular inspections and employee training, is crucial for ensuring workplace safety when working at heights.
