DEFINITIONS

Anchorage

A secure point of attachment for lifelines, lanyards, or deceleration devices.

Attachment Point

A loop or “D” ring connected (integrally) to the body support that provides a

means for attachment of other components of the fall protection system.

Body Harness

Means straps, which may be secured about the worker in a manner that will

distribute the fall arrest forces over at least the thighs, pelvis, waist, chest and

shoulders with means for attaching it to other components of a personal fall

arrest system.

Carabiner

A link with a gate that is normally closed or that automatically closes, and is

used to connect components of a personal fall protection system.

Competent Person

Is defined as “one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards

in the surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or

dangerous to employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective

measures to eliminate them” [29 CFR 1926.32(f)]. By way of training and/or

experience, a competent person is knowledgeable of applicable standards, is

capable of identifying workplace hazards relating to the specific operation and

has the authority to correct them.

Connector

A device which is used to couple (connect) parts of the personal fall arrest

system and positioning device systems. It may be an independent component of

the system, such as a carabiner, or it may be an integral component of part of the

system (such as a buckle or D-ring sewn into a body belt or body harness, or a

snap-hook spliced or sewn to a lanyard or self-retracting lanyard).

D Ring

A form of attachment point on body belts and fully body harnesses meant for

attachment of other components of a fall protection and positioning system.

Deceleration Device

Means any mechanism that serves to dissipate energy during a fall.

Deceleration Distance

The vertical distance a falling employee travels from the point at which the

deceleration device begins to operate, excluding lifeline elongation and free fall

distance, until stopping. It is measured as the distance between the location of

an employee’s body harness attachment point at the moment of activation (at

the onset of fall arrest forces) of the deceleration device during a fall, and the

Instruction Manual

BUILT TO LAST | MANUFACTURED TO COMPLY | DESIGNED TO PROTECT 1

location of that attachment point after the employee comes to a full stop.

Fall Arrest System

A fall arrest system means a system used to arrest an employee in a fall from

a working level. It consists of an anchor point, connectors, a body belt or body

harness and may include a lanyard, deceleration device, lifeline, or suitable com-

binations of these.

Fall Prevention System

Those systems and techniques that eliminate the possibility of a fall.

Fall Protection System

Any of the following when used to protect a worker from a fall or minimize the

risk from falling: Guardrails, Safety belt or a full body harness with a lanyard

and/or lifeline and an anchor, and their related equipment, Safety net, Control

zone, Safety monitor with a control zone, and other acceptable procedures.

Fall Restraint System

A work positioning system to prevent a worker from falling from a work position,

or a travel restriction system such as guardrails or a personal fall protection

system to prevent a worker from traveling to an edge from which the worker

could fall.

Free Fall

The act of falling before the personal fall arrest system begins to apply force to

arrest the fall.

Free Fall Distance

Vertical displacement of the fall arrest attachment point on the employee’s body

belt or body harness between onset of the fall and just before the system begins

to apply force to arrest the fall. This distance excludes deceleration distance,

lifeline and lanyard elongation, but includes any deceleration device slide dis-

tance or self-retracting lifeline/lanyard extension before the devices operate

and fall arrest forces occur.

Full Body Harness

A body support device consisting of connected straps designed to distribute a

fall arresting force over at least the thigh, shoulders and pelvis, with provision

for attaching a lanyard, lifeline or other components.

Lanyard

A flexible line of webbing, synthetic rope or wire rope that is used to secure a

safety belt or full body harness to a lifeline or anchor.

Horizontal Lifeline System

A system composed of a synthetic or wire rope installed horizontally between

two anchors, to which a worker attaches a personal fall protection system.

Instruction Manual

BUILT TO LAST | MANUFACTURED TO COMPLY | DESIGNED TO PROTECT 1

Leading Edge

The edge of a floor, roof, or formwork for a floor or other walking or working

surface (such as the deck) which changes location as additional floor, roof,

decking, or formwork sections are placed, formed, or constructed. A leading

edge is considered to be an “unprotected side and edge” during periods when it

is not actively and continuously under construction.

Lifeline

A synthetic or wire rope, rigged from one or more anchors, to which a worker’s

lanyard or other part of a personal fall protection system is attached.

Low-Slope Roof

A roof having a slope less than or equal to 4 in 12 (vertical to horizontal).

Lower Levels

Those areas or surfaces to which a worker can fall. Such areas or surfaces

include, but are not limited to, ground levels, floors, platforms, ramps, runways,

excavations, pits, tanks, material, water, equipment, structures, or portions

thereof.

Passive Fall Prevention

Refers to a system that is non-dynamic, stationary, and does not move, adapt, or

change when in or out of use. Passive systems don’t require the use of personal

protective equipment or active participation from the worker. Typically, passive

systems include netting, handrails, and guardrails.

Personal Fall Arrest System

A system used to arrest an employee in a fall from a working level. It consists

of an anchorage, connectors, a body belt or body harness and may include a

lanyard, deceleration device, lifeline or suitable combinations of these. As of

January 1, 1998, the use of a body belt for fall arrest is prohibited.

Positioning System (work-positioning system)

A system of equipment and connectors that, when used with a body harness or

body belt, allows an employee to be supported on an elevated vertical surface,

such as a wall or window sill, and work with both hands free. Positioning systems

also are called “positioning system devices” and “work-positioning equipment”.

Qualified

A person who, by possession of a recognized degree, certificate, or professional

standing, or who by extensive knowledge, training, and experience has

successfully demonstrated the ability to solve or resolve problems relating to

the subject matter, the work, or the project.

Rope Grab

A deceleration device which travels on a lifeline and automatically, by friction,

engages the lifeline and locks so as to arrest the fall of an employee. A rope

grab usually employs the principle of inertial locking, cam/level locking or both

(also referred to as a fall arrester).

Self-Retracting Lifeline/Lanyard

A deceleration device containing a drum-wound line, which can be slowly

extracted from, or retracted onto, the drum under slight tension during normal

worker movement, and which, after onset of a fall, automatically locks the drum

and arrests the fall.

Shock Absorber

A device intended to limit the deceleration forces exerted on a worker during

fall arrest.

Snap Hooks

A connector consists of a hook-shaped member with a normally closed keeper,

or similar arrangement, which may be opened to permit the hook to receive an

object and, when released, automatically closes to retain the object.

Unprotected Sides and Edges
