faqs about safety harnesses

Do I need a safety harness when working at low height?

A safety harness may be required even when working at relatively low heights if a fall could cause injury. In Ireland, working-at-height risks must be assessed regardless of the distance involved. Collective protection, such as suitable guardrails, should be prioritised where reasonably practicable. Where personal fall protection is needed, the correct restraint or fall arrest system must be selected for the task.

Can I reuse a safety harness after a fall?

A safety harness that has arrested a fall must be taken out of service immediately, even if no damage is visible. The forces involved can damage webbing, stitching and attachment points. Do not reuse the harness unless the manufacturer expressly permits its return to service following the required assessment and authorisation. Where this is not permitted, the harness must be replaced.

Do I need training to use a safety harness?

Yes. Anyone using a safety harness at work must have the appropriate knowledge, training and competence for the task. This includes fitting and adjusting the harness, carrying out pre-use checks, understanding attachment points and following rescue procedures. Lifting365 Ireland offers an online Safety Harness Awareness Course covering important safety principles. Practical training may also be necessary.

Can I buy safety harnesses online with delivery across Ireland?

Yes. Lifting365 Ireland supplies safety harnesses and fall protection equipment to customers throughout Ireland. Our range includes full body harnesses, fall arrest harnesses, restraint kits and work positioning equipment from manufacturers such as Yale, Kratos and ToolArrest. You can browse product specifications and order online, with delivery times depending on availability and supplier lead times.

Can I use any safety harness with a fall arrest lanyard?

No. A fall arrest lanyard must be connected to a suitable fall arrest attachment point on a compatible full body harness, typically conforming to EN 361. The lanyard, connectors and anchorage must also be appropriate for the complete system. Restraint-only harnesses and work positioning attachment points must not be used for fall arrest unless specifically approved for that purpose. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Are your safety harnesses certified for use in Ireland?

Safety harnesses sold for occupational fall protection in Ireland must meet applicable EU PPE requirements. Full body fall arrest harnesses are generally assessed against EN 361, while other standards apply to restraint and work positioning equipment. Products requiring CE marking must have the appropriate conformity assessment and documentation. Check the individual product details or contact Lifting365 Ireland to confirm the standards and documentation applicable to your chosen harness.
