“…One of the ways to solve such problem is application of personal protective equipment against falls from a height in order to prevent any accidents and possible consequences. Some types of PPE are also intended for rescue and evacuation operations in case of emergency situations at a height [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Modern PPE, presented on the security market, cover a full range of equipment ensuring safety of work at heights: from the rope access systems to simple ensuring the safety of the worker staying at the point of non-fenced place at a height.…”

Works at heights can be unit in the separate sector of works which requires increased risk control and labor protection measures. According to the accident statistics this sector is one of the most hazardous and problematic. The problem of application of full body harnesses to protect workers against the risks of falling from heights is considered in this article. Herewith the importance of operational aspects revealed after purchase of applicable certified personal protection equipment for work at heights (further PPE) is particularly noted. Features of technical/detailed inspections of PPE and training of experts in this field in Russian Federation are presented. The analytical part of the article contains basic information about main damages and standard defects of full body harnesses which could become the basis of a normative document (further ND) for PPE inspection. ND in turn would help to form the general inspection criteria for PPE of various types, and would become normative «foundation» to train specialists. It is shown that GOST R EN 365 need to be reformed in accordance with priorities of domestic market.

“…8,10 Therefore, seat belt inspection is crucial for protection. 11,12 As an essential index to evaluate the safety protection ability of seat belts, the static and dynamic mechanical properties have been widely studied by researchers. Dummies can be used as subjects to test the impact change of seat belts during a collision [13][14][15] to avoid the risk of injury in actual experiments.…”

The fall arrest belt as a piece of personal protective equipment is one of the primary methods of protection against falls. This paper uses pressure-sensitive paper to test the pressure distribution of six parts at different hanging points in static suspension and dynamic fall. The ordinary seat belt is improved by developing a wide–narrow changing belt, which promotes uniform pressure distribution. The results show that the front hanging point is better than the back hanging point, as it can minimize the pressure of the seat belt on the human body during static suspension. Using a wide–narrow changing belt to increase the contact area of the heavily compressed parts can significantly reduce the pressure and promote uniform pressure distribution. The variable coefficient of pressure distribution p of ordinary seat belts and wide–narrow changing seat belts decreased from 0.68 to 0.28. The force discrepancy in different parts fell from 143.7 to 34.8 N.
