Fall Protection Overview By Naheed Ladha

My background Been employed as an emergency responder for over 18 years Bachelor of Science in Safety from the University of Maryland in 2011 Graduate degree from University of Alabama in Aug 2014 certified rescue technician by ROCO

What is Fall Protection? Fall protection is the backup system planned for a person who could loose his or her balance at height, in order to control or eliminate injury potential. Fall protection systems can consist of devices that arrest a free fall or devices that restrain a worker in a position to prevent a fall from occurring.

When and do we need Fall Protection. Federal law Construction industry 6 feet Maritime industry 5 feet General industry 4 feet Longshoring operations 8 feet

What is a Fall Arrest System?  A system which limits free fall distance, thereby reducing force on the body.  It consists of: An Anchorage Point. A Lanyard. A Full Body Harness.

What is an Anchorage Point? A secure point of attachment for Personal Fall Arrest systems. Fall Protection Devices and Systems

What is a Full Body Harness? Harness straps secured about the employee in a manner that distributes the fall arrest forces throughout the body. Fall Protection Devices and Systems

What is a Lanyard? A flexible line made of nylon rope, wire or nylon strap with a locking type small hooks at each end for connecting the body harness to a lifeline or anchorage point to stop the employee in the event of a fall. Photo Fall Protection Devices and Systems

Demonstration on Donning the Fall Protection Harness Things to remember Not all harnesses are the same size. Not all harnesses are worn the same. Must be able to confirm to the weight limitations. Max Weight = 310 pounds Must Conform to ANSI Z359.1 & ANSI A10.14

Measuring Total Fall This example shows a shock- absorbing lanyard with potential to stretch 3.5ft)
