What Is the Traega Fall Arrest Elasticated Lanyard For?
The Traega Elasticated Lanyard is designed to be used as part of a fall arrest system. When connected to a safety harness, this will allow you to safety work from height. In the event of a fall, the fall arrest system will be able to take your weight.
Fall Arrest
A Fall Arrest system will not stop you from falling. It is instead a system that ensures a fall is carried out in a safe and controlled manner. This enables a worker to carry out their job, while a body harness is connected to a suitable shock absorbing system.
This will not prevent free fall. You will still fall, however be caught by a fall arrest block, rope, a lanyard and your harness. Training MUST be provided, and an escape plan MUST be in place before an accident takes place.
