Safety harnesses are designed to prevent workers from falling. In order to adapt to the diverse tasks that workers may need to perform, safety harnesses exist in a wide variety of configurations, answering each user’s specific needs.

Manufacturers classify safety harnesses in 5 groups according to the equipment’s primary functions:

• Standard fall protection = Group A
• Fall protection and work positioning = Group P
• Fall protection and descent = Group D
• Fall protection and ladder climbing = Group L
• Fall protection and work in confined spaces = Group E

Moreover, safety harnesses are available in various materials, offering various levels of resistance depending on the working conditions. Here are the types of materials offered and their features:

• Polyester offers a better resistance to UV rays (sun) and to chemicals
• Nylon offers a smoother surface and is resistant to alkali products
• Nomex is flame-resistant and is indicated for welders

There are also various types of harness buckles:

• Friction buckles for basic safety harnesses
• Tongue buckles for faster adjustments
• Quick-connect buckles for precise adjustments

Consider including these add-ons for a more comfortable fit and a better-performing safety harness:

• An anchorage lanyard
• A padded belt for back support and for attaching tool bags
• One or more additional D-rings
• A built-in safety vest
