use and fixed installations
All employees
on any project that will be required to
wear a personal fall arrest or restraint
system will follow these guidelines: 1)
A full body harness will be used at all
times. 2) All personal fall arrest systems
will be inspected before each use by the
employee. Any corroded, bent, damaged,
impacted and/or harness showing excessive
wear will be removed from service. 3)
Connectors will be inspected to ensure
they are drop forged, pressed, or formed
steel or are made of equivalent materials
and that they have a corrosion resistant
finish as well as that all surfaces and
edges are smooth to prevent damage to
interfacing parts of the system. 4) Verify
that D rings and snap hooks have a minimum
tensile strength of 5,000 lbs. 5) Only
shock absorbing lanyards or retractable
lifelines are to be used which will reduce
impact forces to 900lbs. or less on the
body. 6) Only rope or webbing of an approved
material such as nylon or polyester with
locking snaphooks is to be used for restraints.
7) All lanyards will have self-locking
snaphooks. 8) Verify that unintentional
disengagement of snap hooks is prevented
by either of the following means: a) Snap
hooks must be compatible to the device
or structure that they are connected too.
b) Double Acting/Locking type snap hooks
are the only type to be used. Verify that
unless the snap hook is a locking type
and is designed for the following connections,
snap hooks are not engaged in the following
manners: i) directly to webbing, rope,
or wire rope; ii) to each other; iii)
to a D ring to which another snap hook
or other connector is attached; to a horizontal
lifeline; iv) or to any object that is
incompatibly shaped or dimensioned in
relation to the snap hook such that unintentional
disengagement could occur by the connected
object being able to depress the snap
hook keeper and release itself.
