19、n work undertaken at a height is of short duration, or for technical reasons the provision of a working platform, suitable barriers and other similar safeguards is impracticable, then the prevention from falling from a height whilst performing correctly the related work activity can be achieved by t

20、he use of personal protective equipment. Equipment when manufactured according to this standard is designed to either secure the user safely in position at the point of work (work positioning), or prevent the user from reaching a position where a fall can occur (restraint). It is essential to note t

21、hat such personal equipment by design does not meet the requirements necessary for the purposes of fall arrest: it may be necessary to supplement it with collective or personal means of protection against falls from a height, and its safe use, in practice, relies upon the effective training and inst

22、ruction of the user. 1 Scope This European standard applies to belts and lanyards intended for the purpose of work positioning or restraint. It specifies the requirements, testing, marking and information supplied by the manufacturer. 2 Nonnative references This European Standard incorporates by dat
