Safety Harness & Lanyard · ManSafe Training
We’ve found 60% of delegates attending our work at height courses had either little or no training on the ManSafe™ systems installed to protect them. Likewise 80% of delegates have been issued with the wrong type of safety harness and/or lanyard.
This practical course aims to ensure that all buyers and users of ManSafe as well as safety harness & lanyards understand which kit they should be using to offer full protection, and how to properly inspect kit.

- Importance of regular safety harness and lanyard inspections – who is responsible and how often they must be done with examples
- Importance of issuing and using the correct Safety Harness and Lanyards and PPE and how to inspect it
