 Using a damaged full body safety harness (FBSH) is extremely dangerous, especially when working at heights. Here are key safety precautions:

1. Inspect Before Use – Always check the harness for frayed straps, cuts, loose stitching, or rusted/damaged buckles.

2. Avoid Using a Damaged Harness – If any damage is found, immediately remove it from service and replace it.

3. Follow Manufacturer Guidelines – Each harness has a weight and usage limit; never exceed these limits.

4. Check Load-Bearing Points – Ensure D-rings, buckles, and lanyard attachments are intact and functional.

5. Proper Storage – Store in a dry, clean place away from chemicals and sunlight to prevent degradation.

6. Train Workers – Educate workers on the importance of inspecting and properly using harnesses.

7. Tag and Report – If a harness is damaged, label it as “Do Not Use” and report it to the supervisor.

8. Regular Maintenance – Conduct periodic inspections as per OSHA or safety standards.

A damaged harness can fail unexpectedly, leading to serious injuries or fatalities. Always prioritize safety!
