A stand-alone harness is a safety device designed to protect workers from falls while working at heights. It consists of an adjustable belt that fits around the worker’s waist, connected to a lanyard with a snap hook attached at one end and an anchorage connector (usually carabiner) attached at the other end. The snap hook can be clipped onto static anchor points such as beams or poles, securing the user in place and preventing them from falling. The anchorage connector attaches to an independent anchor point which may include specially designed scaffolds, horizontal lines, guardrails or safety nets. Stand-alone harnesses are available in many different sizes and styles so they can be comfortably worn by any type of worker regardless of their body shape and size. They provide maximum comfort without compromising on protection levels allowing workers to work safely whilst remaining alert and comfortable throughout their shift.
