PRINCIPLES OF WORKING AT HEIGHT TRAINING Working at height is one of the biggest causes of workplace fatalities and major injuries. Employers must ensure that a sufficient risk assessment is carried out so that all risks of working at height are effectively identified, controlled and managed. Every employer must also ensure that employees are appropriately trained under careful and competent supervision to ensure that they can carry out their work safely. Please contact KAYA TRAINING division of our company for more information about working at height training programs. E-mail:...

PRINCIPLES OF WORKING AT HEIGHT Restraint System allows workers to perform their task without the possibility of losing contact with the walking / working surface. 2. FALL ARREST SYSTEM (A) Fall Arrest System is designed to stop the free fall of a user and limit the maximum arresting forces imposed on the user to 6 kN or less. A fall arrest system provides maximum freedom of movement for workers to conduct their duties by connecting to the (A) safe attachment point.

CONNECTING FALL ARREST EQUIPMENT TO FULL BODY HARNESS Connection to the harness must only be via the appropriate connection points (dorsal attachment point or the chest connection) that will provide the best protection in the situation it is being used. Consideration should be given to the potential fall distance, potential impact with the structure and body position after a fall. A work...

PRINCIPLES OF WORKING AT HEIGHT Fall Clearence Fall Clearence USE OF LANYARD 5. LIMITING THE IMPACT FORCE • Fall arrest system must limit the maximum impact force during the arrest of a fall to 6 KN. • Fall arrest system is generally used with a shock absorber. Energy absorber limits the fall arrest force in a fall situation by tearing specific seams. • Fall arrest system without the use of a shock absorber is not recommended. Fall clearance is the height at which a worker must attach to an anchorage to avoid contact with a lower level. In order to calculate required fall clearance distance...

TELECOM SECTOR KMSAFETY 1. ASCENDING WITH VERTICAL LIFELINE MonopoLe or Lattice towers are widely used in telecommunication sector. The safest way to climb up and down these towers is to use permanent vertical lifeline system installed on ladder (if such ladder exist). User is connected to a vertical lifeline by a wire rope grab which is attached to the (A) chest attachment point of full body harness. When the user moves (up or down), it slides along the life line. In the event of a fall, the device stops the fall instantly on the cable. 2. ASCENDING WITH DOUBLE LEGGED SHOCK ABSORBING...

CREATING VERTICAL LIFELINE If there is no vertical lifeline fixed on tower, the first user who climbs up tower with a double-legged shock absorbing lanyard creates mobile vertical lifeline on tower using rope. The other users climb up the tower using this mobile vertical lifeline by help of appropriate rope grab. F-7 K-30/3A LUPA® STATIC 11 MM WITH SPLICED EYE 4. WORK POSITIONING WITH ADJUSTABLE LANYARD Adjustable lanyards are designed to be used as part of a work positioning system and enable users to work at height hands-free...

CREATING VERTICAL LIFELINE WITH ROPE If there is no vertical lifeline fixed on energy towers then user uses the double-legged shock absorbing lanyard to move around the tower whilst being connected at all times. It is recommended to attach double-legged shock absorbing lanyard to the (A) chest attachment point of full body harness. Connection from chest anchorage point prevents a falling worker hitting from surface facing toward user. F-7 K-30/3A LUPA® STATIC...
