A safety harness is a protective device designed to secure a person to a stable structure, preventing falls during activities such as construction, climbing, or working at heights. It typically consists of straps that wrap around the body and are connected to a lanyard or anchor point. Safety harnesses are essential for ensuring worker safety in environments where there is a risk of falling. These harnesses come in various types, including full-body harnesses and seat harnesses, each suited for different applications. Proper use and maintenance of a safety harness are crucial for effectiveness, and users must be trained in how to wear and adjust them correctly to ensure maximum protection.
