SafetyCâu 642 / 700
An employer proposes using a body belt (a single strap around the waist) as the attachment for a worker's fall ARREST system. Under Cal/OSHA, what is the BEST assessment?
a.Acceptable, because a body belt spreads arrest forces the same as a harness
b.Not acceptable for fall arrest; a full body harness is required so arrest forces are distributed across the thighs, pelvis, chest, and shoulders
c.Acceptable only if the belt is rated above 310 pounds
d.Acceptable for any work performed below 20 feet
Giải thích
Correct: body belts are prohibited as the body-support component of a personal fall ARREST system because a sudden stop concentrated at the waist can cause severe internal injury; a full body harness spreads the load. A body belt may still be used for positioning or travel restraint, but not to arrest a fall. Weight rating and a 20-foot height do not make a body belt acceptable for arrest.
