THE A-B-C RULE
To be complete, a personal fall protection system must
include at least one piece of equipment from each of
the A-B-C components (for an example, see fig. 1). Some
personal fall protections systems may include more than
one piece of equipment in each component. Choosing
the proper equipment depends on the jobsite and the
application. A Competent Person, as defined by OSHA,
must make these equipment decisions.
A personal fall protection system is more than just
a combination of equipment. To function properly,
the system must be custom designed for the specific
application, environment and worksite requirements.
Follow the A-B-C Rule when assembling personal fall
protection system. The system must contain all of the
following components: (A) anchorage, (B) body wear
and (C) connecting device.
(B) BODY WEAR
(A) ANCHORAGE
TRAVEL RESTRAINT - FIG. 1
Anchorage (A) OSHA defines anchorage as "a secure
point of attachment for lifelines, lanyards or deceleration
devices". Choosing the proper anchorage is determined
by the type of fall protection needed (fall arrest, or fall
arrest combined with positioning, suspension and/or
retrieval functions). The anchorage must be identified and
evaluated by a Competent Person, as defined by OSHA, at
the jobsite before the appropriate personal fall protection
equipment can be selected. Typical anchorages could be
an I-beam or other structural members.
Body Wear (B) The second component of a personal
fall protection system is body wear such as a full body
harness. To select the right harness for the jobsite
requirements, a Competent Person, as defined by OSHA,
must determine the type of fall protection needed (such
as fall arrest, or fall arrest combined with positioning,
suspension and/or retrieval capabilities). Whenever there
is a risk of a fall, fall-arrest protection must be used.
OSHA prohibits the use of a body belt for fall arrest.
(C) CONNECTOR
