If the harness is not properly fitted, adjustments should be made by ensuring the straps are tight and secure, and that the harness is properly positioned with no twists or improper locking.

What role does the safety officer play in the worker’s preparation for working at height?

The safety officer ensures that the worker's safety equipment, including the full-body harness, is properly inspected, fitted, and ready for use. They also provide guidance and monitor the worker's safety throughout the process.

What is the importance of the green 'tagging' system for scaffolding?

The green tagging system indicates that the scaffolding has passed inspection and is safe for use. It helps ensure that only properly checked scaffolding is used for work at height.

What is a key factor in preventing suspension trauma during work at height?

A key factor in preventing suspension trauma is to ensure that the worker is properly positioned using work positioning tools, such as a suspension sling or positioning straps, to avoid prolonged suspension and promote blood circulation.

How does the proper use of a full-body harness contribute to worker safety?

A full-body harness is a fall protection device that prevents workers from falling from heights. It ensures that, if a fall occurs, the worker is safely suspended and can be rescued without injury.
